Enjoy...perhaps. Respect...probably not. First of all, after seeing interviews w/ Mel Gibson and getting HIS take on why he made it the way he did I think he made a bit of a mistake. But his motives are his own and I'm not going to question them. The only reason I'd go see it is to watch it from a historical standpoint (if one wishes to refer to the bible as "historical", that is) and see how true to the bible it actually is. I have no interest in it from a spiritual or emotional point of view.

Side note: This is one of those "only in Kansas" things. Apparently a woman in Wichita went to go see the movie and got so worked up about it she suffered a heart attack during the crucifixion scene. Man...god must not have liked her much to strike her down in the middle of a movie about Jesus.
