Review of The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) by Antariksh K — 17 Jan 2010
Jesus of Nazareth is undeniably a great character. Just like every other great character in history, people will always attracted to him; out of love, hate, adoration, or any emotional response.
I can't count how many movies were made about Jesus. From the story of his birthday to his ministries to his death and for the believers, his triumph over death.
This movie is a great portrayal of the complex Jesus of Nazareth. It might offend some people who look at Jesus from traditional/religious point of view for Jesus is so human in this movie. He has human emotions; he can experience doubt, fear, pain, and anger. He's not the "meek and mild" Jesus who can easily fit inside anyone's box.
To really understand and love a great human, we should see him/her from a point of view that opposed ours.
