It was very graphic and very violent, but I wouldn't go so far as to say it was too graphic and violent. It was handled very well by Mel Gibson. He did a spectacular job regarding the movie. And, to be honest, I don't see how people can say it's anti semitic. Yes, Jews may think it's offensive to them. However, after centuries of being blamed for Christ's death, this isn't making the matter worse and anything is going to look anti-Semitic to them considering the scrutiny they've endured for that long. I think a Jew's primary concern should be whether this film turns those people that are otherwise not anti-semitic into anti-semites. And I don't see how it does. I was never anti-Semitic and I feel no anger or hatred towards Jews as a result of this movie. I feel anger regarding humanity's propensity towards intolerance and violence as a whole. But no anger towards any one group of people.

If you haven't seen it, I saw you should. It was an incredible moviegoing experience.
