There are too many violent scenes in this film. The whole scene shows Jesus being beaten. It is very dark and the music background is rendered. It makes people uncomfortable to watch, and the mood is always in a depressed state. Let the audience have such emotions, so this is a very successful work, there is not much dialogue of Jesus in the whole film, but his body language is enough to express his devotion and pain, and his language expresses him The love for the world, what I like most is the eyes of the protagonist, calm and firm

    Fragile Apostle Jesus. Revolutionary Jesus. Jesus the Liberator. Bleeding Jesus. Jesus the Enlightenment. Chosen Jesus. Yearning for the ordinary, everyday Jesus. So much about Jesus, but it's not really a religious movie. It has a strong political connotation, and it is especially appropriate to read it in the context of China today.

    A very modern interpretation, completely standing on the opposite side of orthodox doctrine, subversively reshaping the "Bible" and the image of Jesus. Jesus' resistance to the identity of the Savior, the contradiction of self-identification, and the fragile humanity; Judas became the first disciple, loyal and determined, and sacrificed his own reputation to achieve the Lord's way; abandoned love and preached the doctrine of fighting with the sword and baptizing with fire; The image of the prostitute and Mary Magdalene are one. What is even more daring is to set Satan's last trap after Jesus' words "My God, why have you forsaken me", almost making Jesus succumb to the illusion of a happy worldly life, abandon the responsibility of salvation, and die as a mortal. The timely appearance of Judas and Paul's false gospel roused the soul of the Son to return to the cross, and the final "It is finished" can only be uttered after this ultimate test. The story is so plausible, using the Bible against the Bible, using the example of Abraham to question the need for the sacrifice of the Son of God. It is worth noting that among so many subversive plots, the only constant is Peter’s denial of the Lord, which is probably the point that the church is most concerned about (laughs).
