The film has sparked plenty of controversy from passionate Jews who are angered with the supposed portrayal of Jews in the film and their role in the sentencing of Jesus to death.
On the other hand, Catholics seemed to have embraced the film. According the AP, conservative Roman Catholics say that the film is a powerful portrayal of the last hours of Jesus� life.
Miramax owns the rights to the title �Passion�, forcing Gibson to change the title.
Other controversy surrounding the film
has to do with language. The film is said to incorporate dialog in the
�historically-correct languages of Latin, Hebrew and Aramaic�. For some
off the wall reason, Gibson reportedly did not want to use subtitles but
reality eventually smacked him in head and he now plans to include them.
Good thing for those who don�t speak Latin, Hebrew of Aramaic.
