That's appropriate, Christ was a controversial guy. What's inexcusable

is to make a BORING film about Jesus. I just rented P. P. Pasolini's attempt, "The Gospel According to St. Matthew."
Obviously, he thought by casting the homeliest of peasants and having them move at the speed of the zombies in a "B" movie he would create "period" mood. He didn't.
Casting Mary as a sullen, cow-eyed waif, and her husband as a befuddled slaggard, inspired me to hit the "stop" and "rewind" buttons quite quickly.
I do recommend the film, however, to those who think an undramatic, yet factual, account of Jesus' life is impossible.
