The movie was not disturbing to me, I witness far worse real pain and suffering every day in my work with abused children, rather the movie disappointed me. I had hoped it would let me be an eye-witness like those fortunate souls who saw the darkness and the light 2000 years ago. While better than all the sanitized depictions before, it still seemed to be simply one man's fantasy of part of the greatest story ever told. If it brought some to the flock - great; it obviously moved you and affirmed your faith - that's wonderful. For me, someday, with God's help, I'll see the real thing.
