Extreme Violence

Personally I simply found the violence in this film sickening and did not even finish watching it. I cannot believe anybody would ever sink this low for the glorification of organised religion.

This sort of thing is completely uncalled for as even more delicate and more emotive subjects have been dealt with in more tasteful ways. Using this sort of violence to glorify something that has already caused as much pain and suffering in the world is completely pointless and if it was not created for shock value only I would be very surprised.

Our world does not need this sort of sensationalism and whipping up of people's religious passions. Mr Gibson should be ashamed of himself for making this sort of self serving, shock inducing, sensationalist film. It may have been made in an artistic manner and is very much not without artistic merit but the film is completely ruined as is a very poignant story by the completely overboard violence and horror of the way it is portrait.

As a comment about religion, for the first time ever I may find myself agreeing with some religious circles and saying that I find this piece entirely without merit.
