 Movie Review: The Last Supper 

My guess is there isn't a Christian alive who doesn't know the story of The Last Supper, though your biblical knowledge may help determine your appreciation for this film and your awareness of in what places Borrelli's film deviates from biblical accounts and fairly well-established biblical history may also become a factor in your willingness to surrender to a film that occasionally impresses visually but never hits a note of emotional resonance beyond the inherent power of the story itself.
