There are about twenty reviews out already:

That more than enough. I regret putting up the review I did. I am concerned about becoming "Religion for Pros," for the next week.

They all seem to say the same thing.

1) It is very well made. Mel is a great film maker.

2) It is extremely violent.

3) If you want to take it as anti-semitic, it's there.

4) If you are a practicing Christian, you may enjoy it.

The "pop culture" part of it is going to be interesting. The normal thing for the Media to do would be to "Mencken" it. But they are aware of the huge backlash lately from the Religious, and may mute these kind of articles. I expect Covers on Time and Newsweek, etc. We are in the "doldrums" part of the electorial cycle for the next two months. No big news coming on celebrity trials. So they have plenty of time to devote to it.

2965 theaters upon opening is fantastic. But will it have "legs?" Will people return again and again to see something so violent?
