The Body Reviews
THE BODY
I really loved this movie. I found it to be compelling and not too far from the mark when it comes to religious fevor by certain religious sects. I may be a Christian but I believe by faith not a body or certain doctrines.
Construction jobs, no matter where they are, always unearth discoveries.
This story starts out with the discovery of a body, in an underground tomb, behind a deli, in Jerusalem. Because of the condition of the skeleton and artifacts found with it, the world of "christianity" is knocked on its ear.
The characters, situations, and results are well fleshed out and believable. The people are a single mother, a reformed mercenary, the Israelis and the Palestinians, a priest who has built his religious house on sand, the Catholic Church, and the everyday people (including the viewer) who are caught in the middle. I have seen this movie twice - once with some girl friends (it was all about Antonio) and then with a mixed group of friends. Some people will miss the actual story completely, and some will come away with more than they imagined. I found the movie exciting and intriguing. One thing (if you do get the story), by the end you will know if you (or your friends) really do have faith or if you are just members of some denominational group locked into doctrine and ritual.
