    Words of Jesus in this movie: "How does it feel to carry that hate in your heart? Does it lessen as the months go by? It seeps into your days and nights until it consumes everything you ones were... But you MUST FORGIVE, there is no other way to enter the Kingdom of GOD." Can anyone argue with these words? Joaquin Phoenix is a very talented actor in this perfect movie.

      This is a mischaracterization of Jesus' teaching. He taught that he was the only way to enter the Kingdom of God. Forgiveness is a work, a fruit of the Holy Spirit. But in Christianity, it is not our works that lead to salvation, it's our faith in Jesus Christ who died in our place so we may take his perfect righteousness and be counted as holy, as God is holy - as such, our faith, and the New Covenant that Jesus established, is based on God's Grace.
      Otherwise, it's a good message.

But his acting is always beyond good. And I'm not into movie actor stuff. Could care less really. They're millionaires entertaining the mass of poor people, I know them and they know us no more than the man in the moon.
