Recently I watched Gibson's The Passion of the Christ again and was left with a feeling of horror and that it was the work of a sick and deluded mind. This movie on the other hand had me in tears because of how it made me feel, I could imagine being there with the characters who are funny and relatable. The sets and costumes are fantastic compared to Gibson's movie. These guys also did their research on how Romans crucified people. Highly recommended.

I was strangely compelled by this film and it haunted me for days. It's hard to explain why but even when I now watch the trailer it brings tears to my eyes. It is a moving story portrayed by some actors who seemed to inhabit their character.

This movie portrays an encouraging look from a Roman officer's standpoint of the events surrounding the resurrection of Jesus. The significance is well shown in the the differences it makes to each character's life.
