Drama bíblico inovadoramente naturalista e despojado, com a vida de Cristo recontada a partir do Evangelho segundo Mateus.
As parábolas, os primeiros discípulos, a revolta, a determinação, os milagres, a intolerância, a solidão e a impaciência. Assim Jesus conseguiu uma legião de seguidores e inimigos, segundo o Evangelho de São Mateus. Nesta obra maior, o realizador italiano Pier Paolo Pasolini apresenta-nos um Cristo completamente distinto do estilo ‘épico’ com que o cinema o vinha caracterizando; um Cristo solar que se faz acompanhar da música de Bach, enquanto a Virgem é interpretada pela mãe do próprio autor.

For a radical leftist and member of the Communist Party, this is a somewhat unconventional subject, which Pasolini, however, dealt with honorably. In my opinion, he approached his biblical narrative a little too intimately, and I also disliked the excessive duration of the film, about 110 minutes would have been more appropriate. On the other hand, it is good to compare this 45-year-old film with the undeniable filmmaking qualities to the much more famous and media-hyped The Passion of the Christ - it is evident immediately how desperately superficial and empty Mel Gibson's film is. Overall impression: 65%.

The country is beautiful, the surroundings look almost authentic, and actually, the black and white camera suits it quite well. However, it doesn't change the fact that the film is very lengthy and I think there are better works that explore the fate of Jesus. Personally, I hold "The Passion of Christ" much higher than this piece, which tries to delve deeper.
