Audience Member oh boy, this one was a stinker, what do i say other than not worth your time. i did like the father. entertaining, and was slightly different because the main guy tried to get jesus to join him, fight in his cause against the romans. so it has that going for it. other than that, i wouldnt watch it, unless your really bored.
