Here is another example of Hollywood (or in this case some guy in a garage), rewriting the Bible. I am getting tired of it. I would much rather if people that can borrow enough money to rent a digital camera would spend their time on subject that have, at least, a limited knowledge of. Not so here. In no account of the Bible that I have seen is Jesus ever portrayed as clueless, confused and unaware of anything that was happening around him. I am wondering if they cut the scene where their fictitious Jesus was dropped on his head as a child? That might explain the character being so 'lost in the woods'. Furthermore, the events as portrayed are so grossly inaccurate that I began to wonder what this movie was supposed to be about. It had very little to do with the story of Jesus from the Bible. I more then fed up with Hollywood constantly bashing religions in their films, directly and indirectly, often by misrepresenting accepted beliefs. Now that amatures are also getting in on the act is just disgusting. OK, having vented that, let me take a moment to look at anything positive I could find about this mess:
Acting: Very very bad. Not sure if the accent they were faking was Scottish of Klingon. Anyone who may have had any previous acting experience certainly did not bring it with them.
Makeup: The beards looked like the ones you can buy at the dime store with the hooks to hang on your ears. And everyone had a beard. When they spoke their lips seemed to disappear behind the hair. The wigs clearly came from some Halloween costume shop.
Dialog: Appears to be written by a High School Student...in a hurry.
Camera-work: Boring
Sets: The scenery was fair, and the locations were adequate. THERE IT IS!!! THE ONE POSITIVE THING I COULD FIND!!
In short as I said in the title, those involved in this thing wasted their time...for your own sake, don't waste yours.
