A movie title that lives up to its name!
Added 1/30/2010

I had seen this movie on cable channel and decided to purchase it.
This is 1 of the best depictions of JESUS life I have come across.
Even the actors seemed into their parts with JOHN WAYNE even in the end.
This is good reflection of how modern man interprets the last days of JESUS.
I bought for myself and for my step-father. and we both agree. This truly is the GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD.

Classic gospel
Added 1/19/2010

This is a classic telling of the Gospel of Jesus. It is somewhat dated compared to modern versions such as "Passion". There are many well done dramatic moments recorded using facial expressions in the absence of CGI. My favorites are the resurection of Lazarus and John Wayne as the Centurian at Jesus's crucifixion.

Great Story Of Jesus
Added 11/15/2009

This is a great movie depicting Jesus spreading the gospel, traveling with the apostles and ending with the cruxifiction and ressurection. For a movie that is over 3 hours, I think it flows well. With many movies like this made during this era (1950-1970), The movie features great actors (Like Charlton Heston as John the Baptist), Fantastic visuals (The landscape shots are breathtaking) and costumes, this movie is a classy rendition of the Life and Death of Christ.

Unbiblical and pretentious
Added 8/23/2009

No wonder this movie was a flop when it was released. It is pretentious and makes up its own story line instead of following any of the Gospel stories. It has events all out of sequence or distorted. Lots of shots of Arizona hills and gullies - pretty boring before long. Of all the modern movies about Jesus, this is definitely the worst. Try "Jesus of Nazareth" for beauty and drama combined.
