Mel Gibson's 2004 drama about Jesus of Nazareth (Jim Caviezel) is released on high-def in time for Easter. Bonuses: less violent cut of film, photo gallery, commentaries, featurettes, documentary, deleted scenes, biblical notes. THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST depicts the last 12 hours of the life of Jesus of Nazareth (Jim Caviezel), beginning with his betrayal by Judas Iscariot (Luca Lionello) and ending with his crucifixion and subsequent resurrection. Directed by Mel Gibson (BRAVEHEART)--who funded the film himself and co-wrote the screenplay--PASSION uses flashbacks to substantiate a handful of pertinent moments in Jesus' life and teachings, such as the Sermon on the Mount and the Last Supper, as well as his relationships with his mother and his disciples. Still, the drama focuses on the seemingly endless torture inflicted upon Jesus by Roman soldiers at the urging of the Jewish crowd that considers him a blasphemer, despite the attempts of a sympathetic Pontius Pilate (Hristo Naumov Shopov) to spare him from death. The faint of heart should be prepared for the brutal, barbaric beatings that Christ endures. Maia Morgenstern, Monica Bellucci, and Hristo Jivkov are touching as Mary, Magdalene, and John respectively, who are devastated by Jesus' fate yet aware that they can do nothing to change it. Performed in Aramaic and Latin with English subtitles, Gibson's labor of love is sure to prompt discussion and debate as to historical and Biblical fact. Theatrical Release Date: February 25, 2004 Passion Of The Christ Reviews: "[U]ndeniably well-made..."
-- Premiere Staff, Premiere "This is Gibson's personal vision of the greatest story ever told, a look inside his heart and soul..."-- Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times "[T]here is undeniable power and artistry in the filmmaking..."-- Claudia Puig, USA Today "[Caviezel] has an eloquent, spindly body and a gauntly ascetic profile..."
-- Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly "Gibson's immersion in the blood of Christ is an act of faith filmed with a zealot's rapture."
-- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "[I]t is Gibson himself, as director, who most energizes the movie, breathing life into the dusty annals of scripture and investigating them with an almost indescribable, elegiac beauty."
-- Wade Major, Box Office "What THE PASSION adds to Gibson's previous directorial offerings is a stripped-down economy of story-telling and a flair for hauntingly iconic imagery which lend an irresistibly visceral edge."

Passion Of The Christ Video Passion Of The Christ Movie Review  See "Him" as He was....
'VERY' authentic. The portrayal of Satan is quite haunting. It is absolutely ridiculous to 'say' this movie is too violent...I've never heard anyone complaining about the violence of slasher horror movies or serial killer movies or action movies in general, or even 'drama'. The 'violence' in this movie is for a purpose -- to depict Christ's 'true' suffering and His love for Mankind which it did very well. A person should walk away from this movie with the question -- "He did this for me...what can I do for 'Him'?"

This review is for a different format. An Eye Opener
The movie is an eye opener to what torture he went through for us. It goes into great detail the punishment that was put on him. I truly found this to be a "must see" movie.
But, do not let children watch this. It's really not for children.

This review is for a different format.  Reading
The movie was good, but I got tired of trying to read all of the captions, and trying to read it outloud to my grandmother.
Why can't they just speak English for us Americans?
There weren't any scenes of more reality as stated in the bible,so it was somewhat confusing to me.
And frankly, it bored me.

Movie of the Decade
As a Catholic, this movie means a lot for me and my fellow believers. To see our Lord in that manner is flabergasting. Mel Gibson gave us once again a glimpse of his genius artistic mind although the Holy Spirit really directed this sublime movie. Although very brutal and violent compaired with the real passion, it is just a joke. We can never fathom how deep the Passion of Jesus was, we have to be a god to understand it. This movie is all about love - a divine person in what lenghts He had to go to see us back in our original state (spiritually) although differently.

Passion Of The Christ DVD The Passion of the Christ focuses on the last twelve hours of Jesus of Nazareth's life. The film begins in the Garden of Olives where Jesus has gone to pray after the Last Supper. Jesus must resist the temptations of Satan. Betrayed by Judas Iscariot, Jesus is then arrested and taken within the city walls of Jerusalem where leaders of the Pharisees confront him with accusations of blasphemy and his trial results in a condemnation to death.
