The Last Supper

Considering this movie was produced by a well known Christian Artist, it was very disappointing that it was a bit bizarre and unscriptural. It is understanding that there is going to be dialogue and events that will not be portrayed in the Bible. It is not acceptable when events in the Bible are distorted or completely false.

I was looking forward to seeing this movie with great anticipation, so it was a significant disappointment. I am waiting for the next sequence of The Chosen, which I have no doubt will present the Last Supper with great reverence and accuracy.

If Chris Tomlin produces another Christian story, hopefully he will do so with more accuracy.

I thought I was going to see "The Chosen Series of The Last Supper", which is coming to theaters, soon. -- Oh, well! This "Last Supper" movie version, which has every right to be screened before The Chosen series version, is satisfactory at best. The disappointment about this movie would chiefly be the cinematography and lighting, both dark, murky, and unclear. The sound quality was excellent. The screen direction and editing were well done. The casting choices were acceptable, except for the actor who played Jesus -- He didn't do it for me -- just saying. The storyline did the job all right, except that the movie forgot to highlight or mention the role of the "women" who were at the crucifixion, after following Jesus on his walk along the Via De La Rosa, and the "women" were not even mentioned by John's account of the crucifixion, as he was the only one of Jesus's disciples to witness the crucifixion ... This movie didn't have the same polish and personality as "The Chosen Series", but all is is forgiven ... A different perspective is always worth seeing.

My honest opinion on "The Last Supper" is not that good. While the cinematography was okay, there were a few factors about the movie that didn't move me.

1. The character that played Jesus did not do it very well, it was like an empty actor just reading a script. He didn't give the emotion or attitude that the Bible portrays in some aspect. For instance, the den of thieves scene, when Jesus was angry at them, the actor didn't give that emotion.

2. The vfx was horrible, snakes slithering around was like a bad graphic video game. Going into things, missing part of the body.

3. Vital moments were missed, the Crucifixion wasn't shown or the manifestation of God when Jesus died on the cross. It wasn't shown how mary found his tomb empty.

4. Overall I just didn't feel moved, it was almost like the movie wasn't anointed in a way. Or God wasn't a central piece in the film! Almost like doing something without consulting God. Even during Jesus getting whipped, I wanted to feel something so bad, but just couldn't.

Took my wife to go watch this and yes the movie was great.. I had just finally gave my life completely over to God a few months ago while being incarcerated but if you are a huge fan of the show, "The Chosen" than steer clear of this. Comparing the actors from each will completely ruin it for you. Some of them "in my opinion" had no right playing their character and it will be in your mind 24/7 lol. Aside from something as "little" as that. I believe the movie did a great job at showing this from a different angle. Definitely worth watching and I'm glad much more religious movies and shows are coming out. I can't wait to see how The Chosen's version will match up to it!

I appreciate that so many Christian filmmakers have, and still are creating stories to introduce Jesus to the world. Some turn out great and some are mediocre. Thankfully this falls in the good category. It's interesting the artistic license each creator brings to their project. The spectrum ranges from the heretical to the divinely inspired word for word renditions. Again, this one holds closer to the exact stories in the Bible, though not word for word, so I put that in the good direction. The perfectionist diehards might point out the whole cast isn't made up of people who look like they grew up in the middle east. Personally I don't get as upset at that as some might. I thought the set design, location, cinematography, music, and a little bit of CGI was really good. The script was compelling as they told a very old story from a slightly different angle. I didn't recognize any of the cast but I thought they did a good job with each of their characters as their arc's unfolded. It was a good movie to kick off the 2025 Easter season and I could see myself watching it again in the future. I read a couple of negative reviews that thought the pacing was slow. Personally I didn't find that to be the case. Another person complained some of the conversations weren't biblical. Well, I can give a pass to that to some extent. A little artistic license didn't ruin the story for me. Yet another person said it was like a TV movie and low budget. I think people who make comments like that have no idea how expensive it is to make a movie and how hard it is to raise the funds. Also, releasing it is theaters first can sometimes boost the chances of making the money back. I personally still like seeing movies on the big screen and this one was created on a big enough scale to look good on the big screen. Hopefully people will also give it a chance once it goes to streaming. The more people support content like this, the more filmmakers will have the funds to keep creating. People complain there isn't enough quality content. There would be if people would support these creators. Lastly there was a complaint that Jesus acted depressed and joyless the whole time. Well, this is covering the last couple of days of Jesus' time on earth and he knew exactly what was going to happen to him. I think it is understandable that he might feel a little sad about it. 1. He is going to leave the people he cares about knowing life on earth can be hard. 2. He knew how he was going to die and horrific is an understatement. If they had written Jesus as the life of the party and happy go lucky the couple of days before his death that would have seemed disingenuous to say the least.
