Having not seen the movie I can't really play the role of critic, i'll have to take Bounces word that it's a well made and accurate depiction of the events as laid out in the bible.

However, even without seeing the movie I can understand why many religious figureheads would be wary of the film. It's basically about control. Religion is not science, it's not something that can be proven one way or another. However, organized religions are real entities which must continuosly shape their message as times change in order to retain the maximum number of followers.

Don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to depict the pope as a Donald Trump ad exec. Still, religious leaders will always get nervous when someone else is in a position to effect their message and potentially the spiritual perspective of their followers.

just my 2 cents.
