It's admirable that a young director in the wake of Oscars success has chosen such a risky follow up, and though the result isn't completely satisfying, the attempt is worthwhile. Garth Davis proves once again his skills behind the camera can help uplift a not great material, but only to a certain extent. Although a rather elegant and serene interpretation of an eternal story, this film has little new or interesting to offer either to believers or non-believers. Fortunately this film has good performances. Rooney Mara as Mary Magdalene and Joaquin Phoenix as Jesus are effective enough and they talk with their eyes. The role of Judas Iscariot is turned on its head by a superb performance by Tahar Rahim.
