This is the best film that I have seen on the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. I have a video titled "How Christ Died - The Final 18 Hours", of which I previously viewed as the best representation of what Christ suffered. Gibson's film not only accurately portrays what Christ suffered but it brings out the emotions of what the people closest to him must have felt. I believe that it is very important for people to understand what Christ did for us. We hear many stories of his teaching but we don't see or hear much about how much he suffered for his greatest creation...mankind.
