Son of God is a good movie. I know this movie will be compared to The Passion of the Christ. The Passion of the Christ is on a much higher level in production and directing. The Passion of Christ leaves a bigger impact on the viewer. However, Son of God was well acted and direct with a decent budget. Many of the scenes remind me of my Catechism classes. I found Son of God moving, and inspirational. Any Christian will find Son of God is accurate, and believable. Worth watching. Makes me want to watch the whole series The Bible again as the actor who portrays Jesus does a superb job.. Seven stars out of ten.

Watching this movie was an awesome experience. The Bible passages I've been reading and hearing all my life were right there in front of me, being acted out with the ultimate realism. My emotions ran the gamut from happy to devastated to compassionate to joyous. The casting was excellent, as was the acting. The location was perfect. It must've been difficult to choose which Bible passages to include and which ones not to; for if all the writings in the Bible about Jesus were included, it would've been a very, very long movie. Instead, it was just right. They made intelligent choices. I love it when Hollywood brings out movies like this.

Wowsers! If you're interested in a TV movie on the big screen than this is the movie for you. Featuring a Portuguese actor playing Jesus (because Son of God forbid that an actual Middle Easterner played Jesus in a Jesus movie, lest the Faithful go wild) it is literally the Jesus part of The Bible miniseries that played on cable last year with some extra scenes. The production values are exactly what you'd expect for a TV movie - horrible. They were hoping for a Passion of the Christ like hit, but the movie is almost gone from theaters and it's not even Easter. Ticket sales fell 61% in it's second week , even though it expanded into more theaters.If you want a good movie about Jesus, Passion of the Christ is where it's at.
