Hi.
I know I said I wasn’t going to post, but I figured there are probably
a good many of you curious about the movie The Passion of the Christ,
which I saw a few days ago in Orlando. Now, it’s not really
possible to give many spoilers, but I will refrain from giving away
some of the things that weren’t really expected but were really
cool. But anyway…. The way the scene after when Judas betrayed Jesus was
handled was awesome. As was… well… every other scene in the
movie ;). There are subtittles, in case you were wondering.
But not for every single line that is said. You really don’t need
them anyway, but they are kind of helpful in a couple parts. But
I never really thought about the subtitles after the first 2 or 3
minutes. In short, thie movie is incredible and astounding.
I had VERY high expectations, and they were met in every way.
So go see it. February 25th. Seriously, go out the first
day of it’s release. The film will be shown in 2,000 theaters (I
believe that # is just the US), which, bu the way, is on par with many
movies that are major studio releases (New Market Films, which is the
distributor, is NOT a major studio) and by the way, that makes this the
first film of it’s type to be shown on that many screens. If the
movie does well on those screens, it will likely be picked up by more,
so make sure to make it out the first day or weekend. You will
not be disappointed. Also, since many people from church back
home read this, apparently there are some theaters showing it that will
let you rent out the entire theater for big groups the 2 days
before the 25th to see it. I don’t really know how that works,
but if a lot of people want to do that, that might be cool for you to
do. Oh yeah, and remember that the movie is very intense and
violent. It has received an R rating, so keep that in mind if
considering taking younger kids.
Until the movie is released, you may want to try and check out the
latest issue of Relevant Magazine (www.relevantmagazine.com) , which
features a great article on the movie.
Godspeed.
