I'm quite a squeamish person; this movie doesn't sound like my cup of tea, after all. And my wife wants to watch this? She normally doesn't watch R-rated movies and covered her eyes out of fear during Harry Potter. She won't last two minutes, from what I understand. :frown:

He gave it 4 stars.

For those to lazy to click here is his Note on the violence.

"Note: I said the film is the most violent I have ever seen. It will probably be the most violent you have ever seen. This is not a criticism but an observation; the film is unsuitable for younger viewers, but works powerfully for those who can endure it. The MPAA's R rating is definitive proof that the organization either will never give the NC-17 rating for violence alone, or was intimidated by the subject matter. If it had been anyone other than Jesus up on that cross, I have a feeling that NC-17 would have been automatic."
