Awesome and accurate portrayal of the Son of God.
18 October 2003 | by See all my reviews

A long movie, with long dialogues. But those dialogues establish the claims of Jesus of Nazareth. For seekers of Truth, this is a must-see. For entertainment seekers, this film has a little for you. No drama is higher than when God became Man and walked among us, then died to buy forgiveness for our sins! Highest recommendation!
