"They have paid Christ the compliment of taking him and his message seriously, and they have made a film that does not turn him into a garish, emasculated image from a religious postcard. Here he is flesh and blood, struggling, questioning, asking himself and his father which is the right way, and finally, after great suffering, earning the right to say, on the cross, 'It is accomplished.'"-- Roger Ebert Best film ever made about Jesus hands-down.
Based on the novel "The Last Temptation" by Nikos Kazantzakis, the last of the great philosophers.The Last Temptation was included by the Roman Catholic Church in the Index of Prohibited Books.He was excommunicated by the orthodox church.His reply was: "You gave me a curse, Holy fathers, I give you a blessing: may your conscience be as clear as mine and may you be as moral and religious as l".For those who seek answers maybe you will find them in his work "Salvatores Dei"("The Saviors of God")
Try typing The last temptation of Christ part 1 and click on the link. I dont know the quality of the video but at last u can watch the movie. That's crazy that blockbusters near u dont carry the movie, it's a great movie. Martin Scorsese is a GENIUS.
I am Catholic and I love this movie. Some of it's kinda bullshit, but for the most part it was wonderful. It makes you think about who Jesus really was and the struggles that he faced on earth. He often questions who is and why he's doing what he's doing, and everyone keeps asking him why he's not living like an average joe- with a wife, children, and a steady job. For me this is a very powerful message and makes me think a lot about how it applies to my life. That's a sign of a great movie.
I understood. Only somebody with inteligence is able to combine both names and make a good point. You sound like a very interesting person. You must do a lot of research or reading. Are u from the States?
Well, what's importante is that you're happy. When people start realizing that, they become more accepting of your choice. I myself don't follow anything specific, I'm more spiritual than anything else. A have friends from all walks of life and there's an understanding between all of us. Nobody offends anyone when we're all together and nobody tries to convert each other. It works for us.
I don't get why people got so offended. Jesus must have had inner conflicts like any other Prophet. I'm a Muslim and I believe Jesus was the purest man in all creation (Virgin Mary was the purest woman) who will return as our Messiah... But he was still created as a man, with man's feelings. That's what makes him all the more heroic to me.
I actually don't know why people are still hating this film. I'm Roman Catholic, but I know the movie is just a fictional portray of Jesus' life. Willem Dafoe's performance as Jesus was amazing, its music is one of the best movie soundtracks I've ever listened, and I can say it's one of the best films of Martin Scorsese
Good point man. That movie was fucking dynamite. Taxi Driver is my favorite movie of all time. He's probably the most influential American director of all time.
I'm really tempted to see this movie because of the fact that Martin Scorcese directed it and that it portrays Jesus as a realistic human being instead of the gleaming postcard image that most Christians violently adhere by. Personally, I think portraying Jesus as regular human is much more respectful than showing him being flagellated to death for two hours.
You are right. Christianity has been interpreted thousands of different ways and anything anyone says is bound to offend someone's delicate sensibilities. However, I find that biblical literalists are a lot less interested in Kumbaya than in blood and gore - witness the popularity of "Passion."
Once again we're lost in translation. When I said I didn't want to argue I meant I didn't want to fight, to insult. I didn't mean I didn't want to discuss the matter. Fine, we don't meet eye to eye but don't twist my words.
Wow.. damn. Why did you convert? I think you're Turkish, and in Turkey the main religion is Muslim, right? Well, if you believe in what you're doing than people have to accept you and embrace you the way you are. I'm sure it was dificult for you but you stuck with it. Pretty strong. God bless you for your courage.
Great movie with one of the best soundtrack I have ever heard. Watch my video response for pictures from this movie accompanied with excellent music from Jan Garbarek. Unfortunately youtube blocked the original soundtrack "With this Love" I intended to use. Enjoy it anyhow! Peace.
Wiki states: Like the novel, the film depicts the life of Jesus Christ, and its central thesis is that Jesus, while free from sin, was still subject to every form of temptation that humans face, including fear, doubt, depression, reluctance and lust. This results in the book and film depicting Christ being tempted by imagining himself engaged in sexual activities, a notion that has caused outrage from some Christians.
I am not saying their acts are comparative or equal. This is a very disturbing concept, it requires awareness and understanding. Think and feel the concept, 'beyond good and evil'. It is not a mantra to excuse the will of the ego, but it might help to explain the purpose of life and why we are here. Gnostic, felt Christ's greatness, was he understood the illusion. Check out also Buddha's realization, that 'we are all asleep'
Why shouldn't I reply? Did it upset you? I don't get it. I was stating my opinion like you stated yours. One of the great blessings of the free world is that we can express ourselfs.
love the ending on the credits one of the very few films that display a color instead of the normal black screen/i think it was orange/movie is good one scene near the end has slow pace but wait for the end its so worth it john 3:16
BUT, the purpose of life, for a man, is understanding and awareness. Man's trip to enlightenment and 'rejoining' his Creator, is beyond 'good or evil', whether Hitler or Mother Tereasa. 'All the world is a stage, and each must play their part...' Don't judge the players, life is an illusion, but our insights are real! And the Prime Mover, is not Santa Claus, who watches whether you are 'naughty or nice'! and then rewards or punish!
everyone forgot that Christ was never tempted by sin because there was no sin in Him. He came for one purpose and one purpose only, to save mankind from their sins. I started to watch this movie online and had to turn it off. Passion of the Christ was so much better
A lot of people agree with you. Gibson's movie made tons more money than this one did. But I think you miss the point. Jesus's "last temptation" isn't really lust or any of that. It's the temptation NOT to be Christ. The temptation to lead the life of a normal man of his time - the temptation towards the simple pleasures of home and family, rather than dramatic public humiliation, pain and sacrifice. I think he must have thought of that when he was on the cross.
I don't want to argue, I hate arguing. Maybe I'm confusing what you're saying. I'm a little lost here. I thought u were saying for me not to reply and I was wondering why. Ok, forget everything and God bless you. Have a good weekend.
Fine, I respect your beliefs. I did not in ANY way referred to you personally in any of my outbursts. Believe me, I'm the last person in the world poiting a finger at anybody. I'm very accepting of all religions, races, nationalities... soccer teams..etc... You really are confusing me. I might not have been clear expressing myself, but I don't judge anyone in any matter UNLESS it affects me personaly. Then my friend, it's a whole diferent story... believe me.
Though I have not read the book nor saw the movie, from what I have read it actually portrays Jesus in a more human way rather than more divine and being tempted by human desires which jesus imagines himself (in the movie), cont...
What do you mean by "heresy"? Because I don't see anything in the film that is trying to say this is exactly what went through Jesus's head. It's not trying to change anyone's religious beliefs. It is a symbolic interpretation of the human side of Jesus. A side that was never explored in the Gospels. A side that may have wondered what a quiet, normal life would have been like. And the answer? Certainly much easier - but in the end not worth it. What's wrong with that message?
but dont forget that if someone does evil in name of religion i think that, that person is a non believer. because no true religion commands evil things. and no true religion commands to force people in believing itself. first of all we are all human and we have laws in common. religion is something special to every individual in a community. thats why i just replied to you. i believe this is fair. and if you think so why did you replied? i dont understand.
i did not tell anybody like "you have to believe this". i've just commented on the video and had some conversation with other people who replied. thats all! if you want to share your opinions and when somebodyelse shares theirs, you cannot say "i dont want to argue", "dont tell me what to do blah blah...". what you want? u want me to say "ok this guys says this to me but i will stay silent!". funny xD
i am not telling you what to believe:S i just shared my opinion. and you attacked. when i offended my idea you say "i dont want to argue". i am a rational person too. dont insult me! i have enough reasoning to study science... actually i cant see any reasoning in your behavior. why the hell do you attack someone if you dont want to argue??? i did not tell anyone believe this or that or some other thing... its all up to you! HOPE YOU GOT IT NOW?
ok fine. no problem. i hate people who force each other for beliefs, political ideas etc. we people are forgetting what we have in common. we are all human. i have had many difficulties when becoming a christian after having a muslim life for 20 years. my family made me really sad because of what i believe. and i hate it. i never forced them to become a christian as i do. i never told them a verse from bible. world is full of irony. u know...
You should be free to draw whatever verdict you like. Just remember not to abuse freedom of speech by impinging on the freedom of taste of those who do like it. (Not suggesting you have personally, jesusfreakrkg. Just a general rule for everyone.)
I don't want to argue with anybody. I just think that religion blinds people into comitting awful acts and then excusing themselfs with it.... and others also excusing them and sometimes even applauding what they do, only because they say it was done in name of religion. You have your opinion, I have mine. That's fair.
believe me you are insulting. first you call my belief as a "bullshit on bible". then you call me as an irrational person. whatever. i really dont want to argue. if you have questions or other things we can discuss. but dont be prejudiced. i dont like arguing or insulting too.
"Condemn"... is that what you want to do? Have we learned nothing from 2000 years ago? Seriously why do people like to be so narrow-minded? This movie shows the difficulties of temptation and what could have happened if Jesus would have chosen not to be Christ. Is it really that hard to look at a side you might now agree with?
He wasn't sinless... HE WAS A MAN!!!! There is nothing wrong with living a normal life.... Who the hell is to say what is a sin and what isn't?? To me a sin isn't that bullshit on the bible, to me a sin is damn child molesters, murderous, rapists, is people not having what to eat, where to sleep,... That's a sin!!!
@neuroxik Probably because you cave in to it like the rest of us. The idea of Jesus is that he didn't, even though he was presented with option too MORE than we are even. Given we are subject to more in a given day than Jesus was though I imagine. My temptations as an average american are. Lust after women, be lazy and over eat, etc. Jesus was presented the option to be king of all the nations at that time if he sinned. He turned it down like an absolute baller.
yeah people are muslim but the youth dont care much about religion etc. we celebrate new year blah blah. we are not islamic fanatics like arabic countries. however i've studied qoran first. then i studied bible. I have seen the truth about both. then i decided. it was pretty easy for me but hard for others around me:)
@CrimsonEclipse i used to watch those programs everyday, but not anymore(except the simpsons) it didnt do me any good just gave me a crude heart that took in all the bad things and immorality they shewed, cynicism in its best! nope not anymore south park and family guy for me
You obviously don't know your bible very well. It expressly states that, befor Jesus began his ministry, he was taken out into the desert and left for 40 days and 40 nights. After this, he was TEMPTED TO SIN by the Devil
in that case you can just comment without replying to me... Everybody knows that there are different people and different beliefs. you have replied me and I have replied to you. and you said i dont want to argue blah blah. if you dont want to argue just dont reply... what you want is something funny. somebody says hello. you reply by saying hello then when you are asked "how r u?" u say dont talk to me... i dont want to! FUNNY. im not nervous btw...

Best film ever made about Jesus hands-down.
True! soo true! The best way to go into this story is reading the book with peter´s music!
Based on the novel "The Last Temptation" by Nikos Kazantzakis, the last of the great philosophers.The Last Temptation was included by the Roman Catholic Church in the Index of Prohibited Books.He was excommunicated by the orthodox church.His reply was: "You gave me a curse, Holy fathers, I give you a blessing: may your conscience be as clear as mine and may you be as moral and religious as l".For those who seek answers maybe you will find them in his work "Salvatores Dei"("The Saviors of God")
One of my favourite movies of all time.

R.I.P. Jesus.
I can't help but think that this trailer makes it look like an action movie.
can u tell me plz if i can find it somewhere??
what do you guys think about the movie and how much is it
I don't get why people got so offended. Jesus must have had inner conflicts like any other Prophet.
I'm a Muslim and I believe Jesus was the purest man in all creation (Virgin Mary was the purest woman) who will return as our Messiah... But he was still created as a man, with man's feelings. That's what makes him all the more heroic to me.

dont think ive ever yawned so many times in 1min38scs!!!
ill give this film a miss!
i love this music ,god awesomeeeeee
You guys should watch Jesus Christ Super Star as well!
Good point man. That movie was fucking dynamite. Taxi Driver is my favorite movie of all time. He's probably the most influential American director of all time.

Personally, I think portraying Jesus as regular human is much more respectful than showing him being flagellated to death for two hours.
@Rangel316 have you even seen the movie?
This movie made me fall in love with Willem Dafoe, the most romantic portrayal of Jesus ever.
You are right. Christianity has been interpreted thousands of different ways and anything anyone says is bound to offend someone's delicate sensibilities.
However, I find that biblical literalists are a lot less interested in Kumbaya than in blood and gore - witness the popularity of "Passion."
he had no sin, but was tempted. he did not give into temptation.
Scorsese's best film.
Thank you @UndeadOutbreak! I certainly want tot see that! In fact, I would like to see any movie defined as blasphemy by the religious zombie nation
Once again we're lost in translation. When I said I didn't want to argue I meant I didn't want to fight, to insult. I didn't mean I didn't want to discuss the matter. Fine, we don't meet eye to eye but don't twist my words.
An Amen to that.
@TranshumanCyborg have you seen Jesus of Nazareth? by far the best film about Jesus' life ever made.
Because a number of Christians cannot stand anything that tests or questions their faith, while others openly embrace such challenges.
A very believable take on an ancient dogmatic head fuq.
Wow.. damn. Why did you convert? I think you're Turkish, and in Turkey the main religion is Muslim, right?

True... after all the US is a mix of cultures so we must be able to get along..
@walkertexasranger77 Why not?

@BornToDie90 Oh and what's the nature and message, that it would actually be against Christians? I thought it was for Christians
i was an ex muslim... i studied qoran and then bible. then i decided not to act like an ignorant asshole anymore and became a christian.
why was this film so controversial?
odličan film, scenarij
Judas in this movie is good and serves jesus instead of betraying him
Don't tell me what to believe!! To me and to the rest of the rational people around the world he was a man...and no man is sinless!!!

what is this all about? xD
That racist sexist shit is in the old one. The new one does say I don't bring peace I bring the axe though. It's also an astrological map of the stars.
