I really wanted to love it…
The 6 stars are for the actors, the quality of the images and the bravery to make a movie about such a controversial subject. I am sadden for the fact that the plot has so many holes that even being a Christian (myself) didn’t help. Christ journey during his last 3 years on earth was so immeasurably profound it changes lives to this day, 2000 years after. I was expecting that bringing the role of Mary Magdalene into light would make a fabulous complement. It didn’t.

The Mary we didn’t know
Although I hadn’t heard much about this film, the fact that Rooney Mara and Joaquin Phoenix were the stars guaranteed an intense experience.

Ignore the negative criticism. This is a thoughtful and powerful retelling of the story of Jesus, seen from the viewpoint of Mary Magdalene. I can’t think of another film that gets closer in spirit to what it must have been like to have been one of the original followers of Jesus of Nazareth.

Shot mainly in barren locations, in a way it is like a play where nothing stands between the viewer and the actors as they capture our imaginations with the power of their words.

However, much is also told visually. A great deal depends on the silent communication of Rooney Mara as Mary and Joaquin Phoenix as Jesus. Rooney Mara projects spirituality as she comes to understand what made her leave her family and follow this man. Joaquin Phoenix projects the look and the intensity usually reserved for John the Baptist in more traditional biblical movies.

There are two kinds of films about Jesus. There are the epics, which usually present episodes from the gospels in a fairly straightforward manner. George Steven’s “The Greatest Story Ever Told” and Zeffirelli’s “Jesus of Nazareth” also included a distracting cast of well-known actors in cameo roles. Like “King of Kings”, the epics have reverence built into them, usually starting with The Nativity.

Then there’s the other kind, the psychological kind, where the filmmakers attempt to get into the mindset of Jesus and the key characters. But where “The Last Temptation of Christ” sometimes created a negative interpretation, “Mary Magdalene” is less sensational, revealing the inner struggles of both Mary and Jesus with subtlety and credibility.

My only criticism is that the film moves too quickly after the arrest of Jesus. What it does bring home is that Jesus and his followers were possibly seen as a cult of outsiders. Many Jews in Jerusalem, after the temple episode, must have thought them simply troublemakers. It explains why the crowd asked for the release of Barabbas instead of Jesus – an event not shown in the film.

It’s easy to nit-pick details in period movies, costumes, ethnicity and even the fact that everyone speaks English, but “Mary Magdalene” rises above all that; it demands your attention. Inspired performances, a literate script, an atmospheric score and considered art direction make this a memorable experience.
