Jesus Christ Superstar
Jesus Christ Superstar is a movie you have just one opinion on: I love it or I hate it. Depends. If you are the kind of person that likes, disco 70s, and really modern remakes of stories that are millenniums old, then this movie is for you. If you think that a movie that is based on a 2000 year old story, and is made with guns, automobiles and outfits that never even existed back then isn’t your best type, you’ll dislike it.
There are probably 2 sides of my view to this movie. I think it wasn’t the best I’ve ever seen, in fact, it was really bad. But I see that it was filmed in 1973 and that some parts of this movie were made there on purpose (like the guns, airplanes and trucks) because I don’t really think that 2000 years ago they had those things. Also that the end when they cut off that his death. Wasn’t’ it supposed to be when his resurrection occurred? As Ms. Moore explained to us, “It was left for you to interpret it,” I really didn’t think so. If it’s a movie about Jesus Christ, then it should the whole story, from his birth, or even from when Virgin Mary was told that she’ll give birth to the son of God, up until his resurrection and further prophecies.
The songs weren’t that bad, they were very energetic, so that made the movie more interesting. Since this is a rock opera, most of the whole movie is sung, if not all, then it would be better if the songs were at least good. And I think that the beats are catchy, and they fit the story, but also – a little too much of disco 70s.
