#Jesus christ superstar movie#
Though not all the songs are good, once you've finished hearing a exciting song it'll go to a slow song which makes the movie loose momentum. How can you take Jesus followers seriously when they sing songs with lyrics "What the buzz? Tell me what is happening?", you simply can't. The song themselves are truly strange with some of the most bizarre lyrics. Often time movies about Jesus are way too serious and too familiar to enjoy as we have literally seen the story told in nearly every serious way possible. To be fair on the movie it's a more enjoyable take of the familiar story and actually tells it in an original way. We have tanks, airplanes, pants, machine guns, a van and many other modern items in this Jesus musical. In case you're wondering about the accuracy it's really off. Think about it, how often are musical revolving around Jesus are made? Not that many and this has it fair shares of good moments, like seeing Jesus briefly holding a gun and destroying things is something you won't see anywhere else. Despite some obvious problems with a movie only consisting of musical numbers, it's fun to watch. Which means no acting, rare moments of silence, and you having some knowledge about the story since it's really easy to miss the plot in song form. With nonstop singing this means you have to be told everything in musical numbers. The movie first problem is that there is no dialogue it's just constant singing throughout the whole movie. With such an odd combination of music and Jesus it's strangely a blast to watch. Well I can't say I expected a serious drama from something called Jesus Christ Superstar, but a musical on Jesus story is really something I would have never imagine on seeing.
