If this movie is done as honestly as possible, sticking to the scriptures as closely as possible, then I think that it WILL be blasted by those who see Christianity as oppressive.Simply because you cannot honestly look at this story without truly humbling yourself, and humility is not something that our pop culture embraces readily. I hope and pray that Gibson has done his best to make this as non-Hollywood as possible. If so, I will be in the audience...
