Passion of the Christ v. The Bible
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page research paper/essay that analyzes Mel Gibson’s film “The Passion of the Christ” has an air of authenticity that is designed to enhance the illusion that the audience is watching a highly accurate dramatization of biblical accounts of Christ’s Passion. The writer argues that a close examination of the film reveals that there are numerous deviations from the gospel accounts. These deviations, while still in keeping, overall, with the biblical text, tend to promote a theological perspective on the Bible that is in keeping with traditional Catholicism. Collectively speaking, the differences between gospel accounts and Gibson’s film offer an interpretation to the Passion of Christ that is substantially altered, which means that film’s air of authenticity is inaccurate. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

The film fails artistically on a number of levels. First of all, it offers no surprises, as it is a typical sports movie. Secondly, the characterization is rather flimsy and somewhat preposterous. Third, as the filmmakers have little to say and do not say it well, the plot is boring. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
