I saw this movie when it first came out in 1988. I'm a born again Christian, but despite the condemnations of this film from other believers, I wanted to see it before I voiced my opinion. First, this is a VERY bad movie. It's depressing, boring, and not very uplifting. The acting is wooden and the cinematography looks amateurish. As for its content, I found it very offensive and blasphemous. The liberties Scorcese took in his depiction of Jesus is laughable and ridiculous. The Christ he shows is weak, confused, and ultimately irrelevant. And the depiction of Judas as being the strongest of the apostles is too idiotic to comprehend. In fact, it seemed to me that Scorcese's Judas had a desire to be the Anointed One, and because he wasn't, he kept shouting throughout the movie to vent his frustrations. I wanted to walk out of this movie, but I stayed in the vain hope that the film would redeem itself with some truth from the Gospels. Unfortunately, none came. Artistically, The Last Temptation is a piece of thrash disguised as art. On a spiritual level, it is sacriligious, blasphemous, and very anti-Christian. It failed to depict Jesus as God or human. It just made Him irrelevant. Many "notable" critics hailed this movie as as a "moving film" or a "masterpiece." However, mainstream Hollywood likes to ridicule anything that pertains to Jesus or Christianity. Recall the countless times actors use the Lord's name to curse or to insert the 4-letter F-word between His name. Is it any wonder then that most of Hollywood "loved" this film?

WARNING: Christians out there, BEWARE of this DEMONIC film! You really wanna see what BLASPHEMY truly is: This piece of filth! Do not watch it! You'll be sorry if you did! This movie does NOT deserve any stars PERIOD! Point blank!

Instead of bashing a really true and inspirational film like "The Passion of the Christ", start thinking about doing so to a debris like this useless data, if you want to call it data at all.

By watching this GARBAGE, one is completely doing the same as BLASPHEMING my Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST!!! That is why I did not watch it. Some years back, when I saw this TRASH of an ABOMINATION advertised on AMC, I knew it was a DISGRACE and BLASPHEMOUS to the Word of God. I mean, are you that illiterate and ignorant??? Can't you tell that just by reading the name of the title "The Last Temptation of Christ" that it is SICK?? This is totally off-based from the Holy Bible. Not to mention, it is adding and taking away from the Words of the Bible, as it clearly states in Revelation 22:18-19. I pity the fools that watch this film, I surely DID NOT!! If you want to know what really happened to JESUS CHRIST, and what He really was about, then do one or both of the FOLLOWING: (1)Read the Holy Bible AND/OR (2)Watch the true DEPICTION of JESUS in the 2004 film, "The Passion of the Christ"!! In case some of you out there don't know what the PASSION means, it literally means "SUFFERING". That is what Jesus Christ did, He suffered for all the SINS of humanity. I mean, SUFFERED! He even refused myrr (which was sour wine used to numb pain) all because He was willing to take in every pain WE humans deserve! Get a reference from Psalm 69:21, Matthew 27:34 and verse 48, and John 19:28-30. That is what my Savior JESUS CHRIST is all about!

A little FURTHER reminder to those sick HYPOCRITES that agree with this ungodly Martin Scorcesse film of "The Last Temptation of Christ": You are blasphemers to say and believe that Jesus had ever given into temptation of satan by ignoring His duty on the cross and marrying Mary Magdalene and having children. SICK SICK SICK! I am so disgusted with you cults! How dare you disgrace the HOLY name of our Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST! You will definitely be accursed for that! "But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." [Galatians 1:8] "Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men." -Jesus Christ [Matthew 12:32] It is the ULTIMATE SIN that by its very nature puts a man beyond the opportunity of SALVATION. Wake up and get a clue, people!
