What Peoples Said About Paul, Apostle of Christ Film:

**An excessively preachy film, aimed at more devout audiences.** It really costs being a historian when we feel like watching a film based on historical facts. We never manage to take off our academic attire and enjoy it, we see errors and inaccuracies where no one sees anything special. And this is tiring. When the film has a biblical theme, things tend to get worse. And what we have here is one of the weakest biblical films I've seen in a long time. Based on solid material extracted from Paul's letters and the book of the Acts of the Apostles, the film seeks to show us a little of Paul's life as a preacher and Christian leader, focusing on the events that followed to the burning of Rome in 64 AD, and showing the rest through episodic flashbacks. The film starts from the correct presumption that the majority of its public is aware of the events and knows who was Paul. And in fact it is difficult to imagine any well-informed Christian who do not recognize the decisive action of this leader: initially, he was a pagan and helped the Jews to persecute the Christians, whom they considered a schismatic sect of their faith. Later, he became one of the defining figures of the early period of the Christianity, and was fundamental in bringing it to other races and peoples, definitively separating Christians from Jews. Tradition tells us that he was killed in Rome shortly after the fire, which Emperor Nero attributed to the fanatical actions of the city's Christians. The film is not bad, but it could have made a better effort to capture Paul's preaching and action among other leaders: there is no mention, for example, of his participation in the first ecumenical council. Nero does not appear, but we see Roman repression in vibrant and exaggerated colors: although Roman chroniclers provided colorful descriptions of the massacres of Christians, it is known that such reports were exaggerated and archeology has never confirmed such ferocity. It was also difficult for me to see how the Mamertine Prison was transformed into a modern penal colony, with strong walls, guards and gates. Anyone who barely knows Rome, and has visited what remains of this place, knows that it was a small prison, used in temporary situations, and that Romans were not in the habit of having large prisons, preferring to send criminals to galleys, quarries and other forced labor: much more practical than feeding lots of prisoners who do nothing all day, the Romans would say. The film also places Luke with Paul in Rome, which doesn't make sense: we know they knew each other and cooperated, but it seems unlikely that Luke would stay calmly in Rome, and in full view of the authorities, after Peter and Paul's arrest. The general atmosphere of the film is somewhat preachy, and resembles a long Easter sermon, which will greatly displease audiences who are less devout or practice their faith. I didn't have any major problems with it, but I also preferred a different approach that was more likely to please a generalist audience. I don't know if the film was financed by a church or something, but that could very well have been the case. James Faulkner is effective in the role of Paul, Olivier Martinez does what he can in a role in which he has to be unpleasant and Jim Caviezel is clumsy and not very interesting in this effort, the second in his career in which he addresses biblical themes.

(Filipe Manuel Neto)

Can you be said to lead by example when the example is spurious? Paul, Apostle of Christ is the early Christianity 'success story' of the conversion of Mauritius Gallas (Olivier Martinez), Commander of the Third Legion of Rome, and Prefect of the Mamertine Prison. Actually, I’m not even sure Mauritius officially converted; he certainly formed a better opinion of Christians after Saint Luke cured his daughter of an indeterminate disease. I guess the filmmakers deserve some credit for not presenting this as a miracle (Luke saves the little girl’s life through his medical knowledge), but it really makes no difference anyway because there was no sick child, no Mauritius Gallas, no Third Legion, no nothing. This is a kind of artistic license that goes well beyond the fact that everyone in Nero’s Rome speaks fluent English (with a French accent, in Martinez’s case). Mauritius’s conversion (if indeed he converted) doesn’t carry as much weight as, say, that of Constantine, and not because the latter was an Emperor and the former a humble prefect; the problem is that Mauritius’s change of heart doesn’t appears to take place, not as a sign of personal growth, but simply because it’s in the script. I mean, if you’re just going to make shit up, why stop at one conversion? Why not go ahead and make it so that the entire Third Legion accepted Jesus Christ into their hearts as their Lord and Savior? Luke is only slightly less fictional than Mauritius, and equally problematic. A "Luke," to whom tradition assigns authorship of the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles, was mentioned by Paul in three of his epistles. The movie depicts Luke (Jim Caviezel) visiting Paul (James Faulkner) in the rather well-lit "darkness" of his cell, where the two commit the Acts to paper. Why? According to Paul, "[Luke] believes people should know the certainties of my life." This turns out to be quite an unwittingly ironical statement, considering that a) though the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles are attributed to the same author, the true identity of this author remains unknown, and b) there are many contradictions between the Acts and the authentic Pauline letters; thus, in the odd chance Luke did in fact pen these books, it’d be safe to say that he and Paul weren’t as simpatico as this movie would have us believe (the aforementioned irony, by the way, is completely lost on the filmmakers, according to whom "Paul’s life was well documented by Luke").

Here are some translations about the movie:

Павел, апостол Христов

Павел, апостол Христов, е историята на двама мъже. Лука, като приятел и лекар, рискува живота си всеки път, когато се втурва в Рим, за да посети Павел, който е задържан в най-мрачната затворническа клетка на Нерон. Преди смъртната присъда на Павел да бъде приета, Лука решава да напише друга книга, която описва началото на "Пътя" и раждането на това, което ще стане известно като църквата. Но Нерон е решен да освободи Рим от християни и не се стресва да го изпълнява по възможно най-грозния начин. Окован във вериги, борбата на Павел е вътрешна. Той е оцелял толкова много - атаки, корабокрушение, , камъни, глад и жажда, студ и излагане - въпреки че чака за срещата му със смъртта, той е преследван от сенките на миналите му злодеяния. Сам в тъмното, той се чуди дали е бил забравен ... и ако има силата да свърши добре. Двама мъже се борят срещу определен император и слабостите на човешкия дух, за да дадат на света Евангелието на Исус Христос.

Apoštol Pavel

Pavel (James Faulkner), který si prošel dlouhou cestu od nechvalně proslulého pronásledovatele křesťanů až mezi nejvýznamnější Kristovy apoštoly, tráví poslední dny života v temném chladném vězení, kde čeká na svou popravu nařízenou císařem Neronem. Mezitím se s nasazením vlastního života vydává do Říma Lukáš (Jim Caviezel), Pavlův přítel a lékař, aby ho navštívil. Ve vězení Pavla střeží Mauritius (Olivier Martinez), který nedokáže pochopit, jak může starý zlomený muž představovat takovou hrozbu. Dřív než je Pavlův trest vykonán, Lukáš začíná sepisovat další knihu, která vylíčí zrození a počátky toho, co bude jednou známé pod pojmem křesťanství. Jejich víra otřásla impériem. Ale jejich slova změnila svět.

Paulus, der Apostel Christi

Paulus (James Faulkner) der vom berüchtigten Christenverfolger zum einflussreichsten Apostel Christi wird, verbringt seine letzten Tage, um auf seine Hinrichtung in Rom zu warten. Paulus steht unter dem wachsamen Auge von Mauritius (Oliver Martinez), dem ehrgeizigen Präfekten des Mamertine Gefängnis, der verstehen will, wie dieser gebrechliche, alte Mann eine solche Bedrohung darstellen kann. Während Paulus‘ Tage im Gefängnis gezählt sind, arbeitet er fieberhaft, um das Evangelium Jesu Christi zu schreiben und ermutigt seine Anhänger, in ihrem Glauben stark gegen die Verfolgung durch die Römer zu sein.

Pablo, el apóstol de Cristo

Donde el pecado abunda ... la gracia abunda más

Pablo sufre en soledad en una prisión romana, a la espera de su ejecución por orden del emperador Nerón. A Mauricio, el ambicioso prefecto de la prisión, le cuesta imaginar qué clase de peligro podría suponer este hombre destrozado. En otro tiempo, fue Saulo de Tarso, un brutal asesino de cristianos de alto rango. Ahora, su fe inquieta a Roma. Corriendo un gran riesgo, Lucas, el galeno, visita al anciano Pablo para confortarlo y atenderlo... así como para preguntarle, transcribir y sacar clandestinamente las cartas de Pablo a la creciente comunidad de creyentes. Pese a la inhumana persecución a la que los somete Nerón, estos hombres y mujeres difundirán el Evangelio de Jesucristo y cambiarán el mundo.

Paul, Apôtre du Christ

Leur foi a défié un empire.

Alors que l’empereur Néron règne d’une poigne de fer sur Rome, Paul endure de terribles souffrances, seul dans sa prison avant son exécution. Mauritius, son ambitieux geôlier, a du mal à comprendre quel danger peut bien représenter son prisonnier. Cet homme âgé et brisé fut autrefois Paul de Tarse, l’impitoyable bourreau des Chrétiens, cependant désormais ce n’est plus sa brutalité qui effraie, mais sa foi qui ébranle Rome tout entière. Malgré l’énorme risque que cela représente, Luc l’Évangéliste vient lui rendre visite pour le réconforter – mais aussi pour l’interroger, transcrire ses paroles et faire sortir clandestinement ses lettres adressées à la communauté chrétienne, de plus en plus nombreuse. Sous le joug de Néron et en dépit de la menace de persécutions inhumaines, ces hommes et ces femmes vont répandre l’Évangile de Jésus-Christ, et changer le monde.

Paweł, apostoł Chrystusa

Barwna opowieść o św. Pawle to historia jednego z najzagorzalszych przeciwników Chrystusa, nawróconego faryzeusza, który dzięki swej wierze i oddaniu stał się najważniejszym, najbardziej wpływowym apostołem. Życie Pawła to tak naprawdę sensacyjny scenariusz, na który składają się dziesiątki podróży po niemal całym świecie, niebezpieczne misje chrystianizacyjne, spiski, wielkie ucieczki, prześladowanie oraz wielokrotne uwięzienie za poglądy, a w końcu męczeńska śmierć przez ścięcie... Ale życie Pawła to także wielka nauka dla całej ludzkości, dzieje, które zmieniły ludzkość.

Este povestea epică a lui Pavel, omul care dintr-un persecutor al bisericii, a devenit cel mai puternic și important promotor al acesteia. Luca, ca prieten și medic, își riscă viața de fiecare dată când se aventurează în orașul Roma pentru a-l vizita pe Pavel, care este ținut captiv în cea mai întunecată celulă din închisoarea lui Nero. Înainte ca Pavel să fie condamnat la moarte, Luca se hotărăște să scrie o altă carte, care detaliază nașterea a ceea ce va deveni cunoscut drept biserică. Dar Nero este hotărât să scape Roma de creștini și nu se eschivează să-i execute în cele mai stricte moduri posibile. Legat în lanțuri, lupta lui Pavel este internă. El a supraviețuit atâtor bătăi, naufragii, foamete, frig și expuneri, și totuși, în timp ce așteaptă condamnarea la moarte, este bântuit de umbrele rătăcirilor sale din trecut. Doi oameni se luptă împotriva unui împărat neclintit și a fragilităților spiritului uman pentru a lăsa moștenire lumii Evanghelia lui Hristos.
