yeah, we watched it again during the holy week and it does really weigh you down. your emotions i mean. we have been watching it every holy week since it was released because my auntie insisted it. and sometimes christmas celebrations we watch it too, cause my dad would tease my auntie about letting us watch it every chance she gets. haha. *kidding.
this year, we have successfully finished the whole movie because the past few years we were often interrupted while watching the it. i think it's a good movie. no one will really ever know whether it is overrated or less brutal that what really happened, one of my uncle says it's too much but really no one can tell. but generally, the shots, the portrayal, the effects, the blood are realistic and really good. i never actually was able to give reviews on anything but here goes for one movie that's supposed to put a twist to lenten season. good, mel gibson and jim caviezel. i think now people will think jebus is hot. *kidding.
one reason why we did finish the movie this year is because we didn't see the 'penitensiya' it's the yearly 'show' so to say where people volunteer to hit themselves bleeding and walk the streets with black cloth on their faces and leaves as pants. my english-spoken cousin says they are 'teenage mutant ninja turtles'. cute. i have no idea where he got that but it might be a clever enough idea to consider.
back to the movie, passion of the christ is good. it's good. really. good. that's enough.
