I just didn\'t feel it.

Two Christians come out of the movie. One says: "That was nice". The other says: "Meh, the book was better".

I didn\'t find it all that violent...

It was overdone but can\'t compare to a classic John Woo film...

If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

I saw it with my church, and people were sobbing... Briefly, I liked the movie a lot, and I thought it was really accurate. There were some parts that made me cringe, but the gore wasn\'t that bad.

Ok, new question, in which part did you guys cry?

No part made me cry either and I agree with ashford, it really wasn\'t that violent.  People need to watch more movies.

I didn\'t cry at all, but came close in that scene where Mary tries to help Jesus and they flash back to him falling as a child. Very, very touching.

As far as violence is concerned, I don\'t know if it\'s the goriest or the most violent movie I\'ve seen.. but I don\'t think I\'d seen somebody tortured that badly before. Not like that, anyway..

I mean, yeah.. we could bring up that one scene in RoboCop.. but.. :)

Just got back from the theater and I have only one word to describe it . . . WOW!

Put me in the biased column, though.

You know there are people right now that are going through alot more than what the movie showed...but they are actually living it...None of those Christian churches who spent thousands of dollars on that movie care though. Hypocrisy?

These people are telling me that this movie will "touch" you and "change your life forever"...How? American History X has a much deeper meaning than the Jesus movie did. I\'m pretty sure that if a Jew was to make a movie about "Why we killed Jesus" and keep in congruency with history Christians would be all over that movie. There was another movie called "The Last Temptation..." but nobody seemed to care and it was alot better than this one. How accurate can this movie be? Yeah, I\'m pretty sure God was playing that sad music through the clouds as Mary was having the "accurate" flashback she had.

If the movie hadn\'t added those special "to make the audience" cry effects it would of been alot better. They didn\'t "sugar coat it" they just sprayed it with onion juice.

Do you honestly think Mel Gibson, a devout Catholic, made this movie simply to make people cry?

Dude, you\'re so anti-religion. And don\'t say you\'re not.

So you have a different opinion than others. Why so grumpy? So it touched others deeper than you, why are you so defensive?

I\'m not grumpy...I\'ve been bitched too about how "great" this movie is by my gf\'s friends. And it\'s all the same excuses. So I\'m just frustrated!

They\'re not "excuses", as if it were a fault that they have to explain to you why they like it. They gave you their reason. They enjoyed it more than you, why do you feel so offended?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...They don\'t "give" opinions. They stab you with them and call you a "heathen" and an "anti-christian" and tell my girlfriend to break up with me b/c of it. Yeah, all this comes from the same chick, who is 17 and is dating a 27 year old and she also drinks...

I find it offensive because they really don\'t know what they are talking about. They keep on bringing the same "it was worst in real life" BS and I tell them "so, it doesn\'t matter, that\'s not the reason he suffered" and it\'s like I streaked in the middle of their Chruch. Silly Protestants.
