I'm not sure I have ever anticipated seeing a movie in the theatres as much as I am anticipating 'The Passion of the Christ'.
I just read Roger Ebert's review on the movie, here are a few things he said:

This is the most violent film I have ever seen.

This is coming from a man who has seen just about every semi-mainstream movie ever made.
Quote:

If it had been anyone other than Jesus up on that cross, I have a feeling that NC-17 would have been automatic.

He also eluded to the fact that he thinks he the movie should be rated NC-17, because it is way too graphic for younger viewers. He said that the film is not for younger viewers, but "it works perfectly for
those who can endure it." Just the thought that some people won't even be able to endure this movie is pretty shocking.
