That's a joke response right? I mean, even if you aren't religous, I'd find it hard for anyone to consider it as the worst films of the year.
I'm totally serious. I've watched 6 or 7 movies in the theatres so far this year, but none yet has taken the Passion's spot of the worst one of those.
Not only looking at it as a normal movie (ESPECIALLY technically) did it suck, but as a Jesus movie, it REALLY sucked. Even the Jesus miniseries a few years ago was 10x better. Gibson went overboard in trying to make his audience feel guilty, and left out the good filmmaking in the process.
As for the religious points,I don't think the point of Jesus' existence was to make US feel like we were the ones being tortured. Gibson also took much from the Gospels away and added into, to add into the emotional factor.
