It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

This is a very good movie. It's not exactly the Biblical telling of what happened after the crucifixion but it is a good and powerful story as seen fictionally through the eyes of Pontius Pilate's right hand man Clavis.

This movie has tried to explain the origination/rebirth of Jesus in a different/magical way. Nothing else was interesting enough to mention.

It's impossible to make a film about Jesus. It always ends up being an embarrassing affair. For me, only one movie captures the essence of what the person Christ is: "Jesus of Montreal".

About half way in, this movie suddenly woke up for me. One of the soldiers who guarded the tomb of Jesus (or Yeshua) is found in a tavern -- and relates his experience at the tomb -- struggling to understand. I have no idea if such a scene appears in the Bible, but it got my attention. And from then on, the movie became -- for me -- a unique experience: causing me to experience key claims of Christianity as if they were real. The main character Clavius, a tribune, faces life-uprooting revelations regarding the nature of Jesus -- and the music/sound effects combine with superb acting to bring the viewer, totally, into the shock he experiences. And the conflict, moving through all strands of his life. Joseph Fiennes is always outstanding I suspect, as he is here as Clavius; as is Cliff Curtis, who portrays Christ; and Tom Felton, who portrays Lucius, an ambitious young officer under Clavius. And, as another reviewer says, "...someone please nominate that Roman guard in the tavern for an award."I may not be as shocked as Clavius -- I have been fighting battles internally about the nature of existence all my life -- but I did get a striking new look at what it would mean to see what he saw, up close and personal.
