Stories About Jesus, Ranked
Cinema has been telling the story of Jesus since the 19th century. Spurred in part by the blockbuster success of The Passion of the Christ, the tradition is as strong as ever.
Here's a look at present-day films and TV features, released from 2000 to today, that have featured Jesus as a character. Using Metacritic data, we've ranked them from least to most critically acclaimed.
First presented as a 10-part miniseries (later boiled down to the two-hour movie Son of God), The Bible stars Diogo Morgado as Jesus. It wowed TV audiences, but underwhelmed critics who found it tedious.
“It often plays more like an action film than a serious interpretation of a holy book.” —Rob Owen, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
