It’s not that shocking. A lot of people consider it one of the greatest films of all time. Most of the film’s negative reception stemmed from controversy about its subject material
My problem with it isn’t the controversial subject material. It’s not a very good film. Yes I’m coming from a Christian perspective, but I don’t think anything is wrong with portraying Christ as being tempted with sin and doubt. My problem is that the film doesn’t do a good job at portraying temptation and spiritual struggle.
You’re missing the part where mfm pointed out that the film is generally very well regarded. That’s literally the whole point of his post. It’s not shocking someone would rate it so highly, whether you liked it or not.
