RJG rating-100

The last 12 hours of Jesus Christ..

Starring- Jim Caviezel,Maia Morgenstern
Director- Mel Gibson

Even after 8 years Mel Gibson's epic Passion of Christ stands strong among the minds of all...No one else had the courage or expertise to capture the raw intensity of Christ's final hours like Gibson did..
The movie doesnt gloss over Christ's peaceful life like other movies,instead it deeply and painfully paints a raw picture of the last hours of Christ....

Jim Caviezel ,as Jesus ,gives the performance of a lifetime..His major mode of communication is through his one eye..Every line that escapes his mouth makes a deep impact and his body language tells more than anything...
Maia Morgenstern as Mary, is just heart breaking to watch.Every scene of her and Jesus in the flashbacks can reduce one to tears...Once again its not by words but by raw emotions that feelings are expressed..

Mel Gibson's third directorial venture, after critically acclaimed Braveheart & Man Without A Face ,Passion once again is a powerful movie that emotionally captures your attention...Famous for the climax torture scene in Braveheart, Gibson doesnt hold back anything in this movie...Its a pure bloody movie..Not for the weak hearted..Hats-off to Gibson..

Though brutal & bloody ,the movie stays true to the theme of the epic story of Jesus, as written in The Bible...Many scenes are spiced up or added to keep the movie going in a strong pace..But in no way does it undermine the Bible ,since its actually filling the blanks in the story...These scenes are for the viewers ,for them to experience the time in which these events take place...

The music by John Debney is outstanding and raises the intensity of every scene..

Very few movies have actually brought me to tears,but im proud to say Passion is one of them...A must watch....

Reese & Finch once again cross paths with Elias ,this time they have to protect 5 mob bosses from him..

POI seems to have no trouble raising up strong characters and giving them solid backgrounds..They did it with Finch ,then Reese ..This time they painted a brillant backstory for the arch nemesis ,Elias.. The backstory was short and touching ,with a strong resemblence to the Godfather stories...No worries though ,the writers have pulled off yet another great episode...
