Hey, I was doing a search on regions and found this journal (I'm from Cookeville, too). I like it so I added you to my friends.
Now on the subject, I think you should go see it.
I agree with jfenq, that it was mostly just gory, and the only people who will get anything out of it aside from that are the ones who know what to look for. But it was still good, in my opinion.
The thing is that every thing is so subtle. The shroud of Turin (maybe), Christ crushing the snakes head with His heel, the solders gambling for His clothes, and tons of other things like that. Some of them were even more subtle and some were pretty obvious. If you like that kind of thing, you will love this movie, if you don’t, you will despise it.
The only really bad thing is that our theater is so small and people around here walk like they drive and are so damn stupid. But, that’s expected.
