Movie Reviews of St. Peter
Movie Review: Good...if you like inaccurately portrayed movies based on the Bible
Summary: 2 Stars
First of all, this movie has one part in it that makes the movie worthy of watching once: Paul's conversion. The part where he reveals himself as a new follower of Christ to the other disciples bought tears to my eyes. But that's as good as it gets. The parts before and after were laughable b/c not only did they inaccurately portray scripture, but 2 of the actors chosen didn't look believable while they portrayed their roles. I mean, John the Apostle looked extremely feminine and much like Jake Gyllenhal. And when I think of Jake Gyllenhal, I immediately think of Brokeback Mountain. Not a good thing to think of during a religious film. The man who portrayed Christ looked like a tough guy who wouldn't think twice about beating you to a pulp for looking at him wrong. And call me crazy, but I just don't envision a loving, kindhearted Christ w/ a face resembling Clint Eastwood meets Arnold Shwartzenegger meets Gary Sinese in a bad mood. Also, the movie was dubbed horribly. The most laughable part of the movie was Peter's death, which isn't funny at all under normal circumstances, but was hilarious in this movie. Why? B/c during his crucifixion, he had on what looked like an insanely oversized Depends adult diaper, and nothing else. But the most hilarious part of it was the fact that his friend's, fellow disciples, and family were LITERALLY standing inches away FROM HIS FACE, looking at him while the soldier's nailed his hands to the cross and he slowly died. And they did it w/ no emotion whatsoever! I mean, doesn't it seem funny to you that a disciple of Christ was screaming and moaning in pain during his crucifixion, while his friends and family literally watched him die a few inches away? I mean, the soldiers almost didn't have enough room to nail his hands to the cross since they were standing so close! Geez! Overall, I would watch this film again b/c of the part of Paul's conversion, but that's about it. It was that bad!
Summary of St. Peter
As a dedicated follower of Christ Peter spreads the message of the Christians across the land often staying only one step ahead of those determined to persecute him. As the tension between the Christians and the Romans grows blood runs in the streets and the apostles lose St. Paul to crucifixion. On the road to Damascus Peter comes face-to-face with a stranger who shows him the only way - he must put himself on the cross in order to bring peace to Rome.System Requirements:Run Time: 186 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA Rating: PG - 13 UPC: 012236210740 Manufacturer No: 21074Drama DVD Video
