It makes me cry that turning the subtitles on didn't tell me what he whispers to her at the end. I want to know!!!

Thats true, I forgot about that one. I got a little choked up when my boy JC dropped the cross in front of his mom. Brutal. You dont even have to be religious to appreciate what was going on during that movie.

Only time I swear there was not a dry eye in the theater was during this film, and +1 to the fact that you don't need to be religious to appreciate it.

I simply don't believe you. I think that you are both Christians, and that almost without exception that is a prerequisite to appreciating that film. It looks terrible. Moreover, 51% of critics, according to RT, did not appreciate it. I even have the impression that the bulk of the negative reviews come from reviewers who are Christians.
The Last Temptation of Christ, on the other hand . . . I'm not religious at all, but that was a damned fine film.
Vigo:
Nope, it's true. Whole damn theater was shaken. And sorry, me being Christian is not a prerequisite to appreciating that film. My wife is Buddhist, and she certainly appreciated that film as much as I did, if not more. Also, I remember a classmate/friend of my wife's who is Hindu especially appreciated the film as well, and wanted to talk about it on an intellectual level for like a week. :blah:
Regarding RT, I don't put much stock in film critics to begin with (They are the people who gave Bridesmaids a 90%), but I looked at rotten tomatoes, and a lot of negative reviews smelled to me more of Mel Gibson bashing. If you remember, it was very vogue to hate on Mel Gibson at that time. Even if that's not the case, I really don't see any problems that it was not a critically acclaimed film. That has nothing to do with appreciating it.

+1000. Im not Christian, Im Catholic, but I dont go to church often anymore(or when this movie came out) so I wouldnt call myself religious in that sense. RT is a joke. Like Vigo said, they gave Brides maids a 90%. I couldnt agree more on the Mel Gibson bashing aspect of the reason for the negative reviews. Any movie he does since his little escapades is going to be bashed regardless if its good or not. It wasnt critically acclaimed because the Jews own Hollywood, so duh, its nots going to get the reviews it probably could have got under different circumstances.
The part that got me was how a person, any person, could endure the torture that was portrayed in that movie. You know what was going to happen too, but to see it like that, so graphic... Im really close to my mom, so when I saw the part where he dropped the cross in front of his mom and she wiped his face I imagined myself in that position, and that Jesus knew he was going to die, and I got a little choked up.
I also got choked up when Buzz realized he couldnt fly and he was just a toy in Toy Story. Granted I was a lot younger when that came out, but still. ;D
