The last 2wks Im thinking maybe its time for me to see this movie. When it came out a number of yrs ago, I couldnt bring myself to see it. Alot of comments were made about it at the time.

I didnt need my imagination.
The lust for violence, hatred, anger, murder prevailed in this movie. There was a stark difference between loving and caring people against the vicious intent to harm, and inflict pain on another human being without compassion or mercy, the cruelty of mankind. How far men will go in their hatred and judgement of another.
In some ways it reminded me of TMB.
There were parts I just couldnt keep watching. It [the violence] became too excessive IMO
Right at the begining when Jesus was praying in Gethsemane and the others were asleep...reminded me of the importance of prayer when we commit to pray for something with someone. There was a reason he said 'one hour'
Praying for an hour can seem forever, I use music to help me focus.

Mel Gibson is so anti sementic too that I don't think it was a good or fair renactment of their role.

I hate to see people not defend themselves.

I thought the film depicted man aptly: the good, the bad, and the ugly.
