The ion of the Christ is a 2004 biblical drama directed by Mel Gibson. It depicts the final 12 hours in the life of Jesus of Nazareth, beginning with the the Garden of Gethsemane, his betrayal by Judas, his trial, and culminating in his crucifixion and death. The film is known for its graphic and realistic portrayal of Jesus's suffering, shown through the lens of intense violence and physical ordeal. The dialogue in the film is entirely in reconstructed Aramaic, Latin, and Hebrew, with subtitles. Starring Jim Caviezel as Jesus, the film caused significant controversy upon release due to its extreme violence and accusations of anti-Semitism. Despite this, it was immensely popular, particularly among Christian audiences, and it remains one of the highest-grossing R-rated films in the United States.
