11/08/2021 I love this version. It is quite different from the 1973 film, but has its own style of interpretation. See more jan jingyang z 05/05/2020 Not the clean rocky voices of the original movie but a different and still great take on the story and the music. And I as a Christian myself don´t think the movie is blasphemia or insulting to Christians; it´s just different from "normal" Jesus movies. See more 03/29/2020 By far inferior to the 1973 version ... they slowed down the beat and lowered the octave to a ridiculous extent ... and the characters were far less likeable, especially that whiny butt playing Jesus! See more 12/19/2018 Terrible misunderstood adaptation of the legendary rock opera. Judas in hell? Really? See more 10/23/2018 ehh.... The cast seemed half asleep during filming. See more 05/24/2017 It's absolutely fantastic!!! See more Read all reviews
