Movie Reviews of The Last Temptation of Christ - Criterion Collection
Movie Review: A very intelligent and moving portrayal of Jesus as a man.
Summary: 5 Stars
Along with outstanding casting (Willem DaFoe as Jesus Christ, Barbara Hershey as Mary Magdalene, Harvey Keitel as Judas and David Bowie as Pontius Pilate), a brilliant soundtrack (composed by Peter Gabriel), and beautiful cinematography, this film tells the story of the Jesus' life as a man on earth, from his humble beginnings as a carpenter, through the crucifixion and his "last temptation". Though I was too young to see the film in the theatre, or to understand the controversy behind the release of the film, I believe now that the reason many people had a problem with the movie was because they did not watch the film through to the very end, when the temptation is revealed and explained. I won't give away the meaning of the final scenes, but I will tell you that one of the most moving scenes you will ever see in a film, whether you follow an organized religion or not, is the very final one, accompanied by Peter Gabriel's "It Is Accomplished". Give the film a chance, and watch it through to the end with an open mind.
