I need to preface that I judged this film solely based on the merits of it as a film, and not as an adaptation of the biblical story. As a Catholic, I was curious and ultimately satisfied with what was portrayed here, since Mary Magdalene was not really the key focus of discussion in my theology class. Of course, there are inaccuracies, and calling this the "true" retelling of Jesus through Mary Magdalene's eyes would be heavily contested by many vocal individuals anyway. Yet, I was drawn in by the simplicity of this film, with decent actors/actresses that conveyed this tone well. The cinematography was calm but graceful, with great nuances and delicacy that made the viewing experience enjoyable. I immensely enjoyed the themes of this film, which tried to present Jesus in a more humane manner, with a greater emphasis being placed on Magdalene's ability to truly intrinsically understand Jesus' message. I do understand that bias was involved in this particular portrayal of the biblical story, but I do not think that this solely disqualifies or justifies knocking points off. Instead, my criticisms range from some parts of the film being too slow, to this film's ending, which while being simple and poignant, did not satisfy me as I had hoped. It was still an enlightening ending, but I still wished for more. Still, all the actors/actresses involved in this production were great, and I thoroughly enjoyed their portrayals of the Apostles, Jesus, and other pivotal figures. It may not be an objectively biblically accurate film, but for those that are not too dogmatic and a bit open-minded, it's an amusing experience that has a sense of freshness that I found to be splendid.
