I'm mildly surprised no Christian has started a thread about this movie yet, set to open today. Do any of you plan to see it? Or are you taking a wait n' see approach, depending on reviews?

I just read an interview with Joseph Fiennes, who plays the Roman officer Pilate sends to investigate Jesus' mysterious disappearance from the tomb and it sounds somewhat intriguing, even to this non-Christian.

Ill watch it, but wont pay for than $5 to see any Hollywood take on a religious subject. If a Christian can pay to see most of the trash that is released on screen now adays, dont see why they cant pay to see this.

I'm taking a "wait and see" approach. Hollywood has done such a horrible job in the past on Biblical stories, I have zero confidence that they'll get this right.

Besides which, I live in the middle of nowhere and the closest movie theater that will be showing it is an hour away.

Yeah, I'll probably see it. I kind of like movies of this sort, and while I haven't seen one yet that I would consider to be 100% accurate, I don't think they have to be 100% accurate to be worthwhile.

I forgot, when does it come out?

I'm guessing it will get about 5% on the fundamentalist (the few that are saved that have gone through the narrow mind(I mean gate) rotten tomatoes tomatometer.
