first of all and the actor they have to play jesus have blue eye . half the actor they have play jew have blue eye . aren not there enough brown eyed actor out there . jesus be depict a have blue eye be one of my pet peeve . he be a full blood jew . second of all and what be it with old english language movie that be suppose to take place in non english speaking country and and everybody have english accent . ( another example be david lean dr. zhivago . ) aren not there enough either jewish actor or actor who can do a israeli accent . the movie often be not true to the scripture and and so seem to doubt the legitimacy of jesus claim to be the messiah . in the bible and when jesus be baptize by john and a voice come from heaven say this be my beloved son and in whom i be well pleased ( matthew 3 represent17 and mark 1 represent11 and luke 3 represent22 ) . in the movie and john the baptist say this . the screenwriter seem to be try to portray the believer a crazy and as well . for example and in the bible and the angel gabriel tell mary she will become pregnant with the son of god ( luke 1 represent26 38 ) and but in the movie and we do not see or hear any angel mary appear to be talk to a moonbeam and and when mary mother hear her talk to someone and peek in on her and she doesn not hear or see anyone either . also and in the movie and when jesus be speak to the pharisee in the temple in jerusalem and he say and you shall not see me here again and not until you learn to cry and bless be he who come in the name of the lord and for i and my father be one and the same . the correct line ( matthew 23 represent39 and luke 13 represent35 ) be you will not see me again until you say and bless be he who come in the name of the lord . period . jesus never claim to be god . the movie cut out a lot of important part ( the sermon on the mount be very expurgate ) and but then spend a lot of time on stuff that isn not even in the bible ( a whole scene with mary magdalene talk with a john ) . it seem like the screenwriter and instead of want to do a movie version of the scripture and want to make a movie about what he think might have really happen behind ( and between ) the scene . the movie have one gem though during the scene where jesus tell the parable of the prodigal son and at matthew the tax collector house and i have tear stream down my face . it be the best movie i have see about jesus ministry ( but that isn not say much and because the others be just terrible ) . jesus christ superstar be my favourite movie about jesus last day ( the passion of the christ be way too graphic ) and though i like how jesus of nazareth and instead of just end with jesus death and continue on and show his resurrection .
