      Believers need to beware of the echoes of ancient heresy Gnosticism

      In recent years, it seems that religious themes have once again become popular. But like the restless heretics in history, they don't really want to "missionary", but to exchange old bottles for new wines, expressing their positions on various current issues through Christianity. For issues such as feminism and racism that are in full swing in the West, they need a "Bible" that speaks for them, because they can't find supporting scriptures in the Bible, and they can only...

      Chen Hongguo: Mary Magdalene

      I followed him for a long time, I thought I knew him

      I thought I was brave-when the soldiers came to catch him

      I didn’t hesitate to drew the sword and cut off one of them’s ears

      Actually it was just a momentary recklessness

      When I saw the situation getting worse, when I...

      Rooney Mara's eyes

      [Micro Film Critic] Rooney Mara, a smart and restrained actress, has always been associated with the word "pale" in her impression. In "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", "Carol", and "Secret Manuscript", she is the kind of girl who can pretend to be indifferent in her heart, indifferent and isolated, but her eyes are beating again. But it was also in "Mary Magdalene" that she found the most suitable role for her.

      I watched this film because I recently rewatched "The Da Vinci Code". I...

      Where does the god you believe in come from? Is it the "Bible" or my own conjecture?

      A literary movie really looks at Jesus from the perspective of Mary, so in the image, Jesus is not overwhelming, but it is also very important.

      Looking at Judas from the perspective of Mary, one can appreciate the cause and effect of Judas. Mary's perspective is also a human perspective, which can witness how Mary faced doubts and slanders in this group.

      The ending of the movie is only to see Mary and Jesus, there is no need to repeat it. You can see Mary’s faith. In most cases,...

      What are you seeing?

      The plot of this movie is a bit beyond my cognition, and I have no way to verify it. But watching this movie, what was deeply attracted by Maria was her gaze, her firm and clear gaze.

      The film tells that the disciples of Jesus are following Jesus, but they have their own expectations. These expectations were not accidental in the background at the time, nor was it a whim. It can even be said that there is a certain great feeling mixed with it. Because these expectations of Jesus...

      Two stars. Religious movies are too difficult to make, they are easy to touch the restricted areas of all parties, and they cannot be understood by the general public in terms of subject matter. The same is true of this film. Although Rooney Mara is beautiful and the soundtrack is excellent, people who are not familiar with this subject will find it difficult to understand....

      Mary Magdalene actually relived the account of Christ's crucifixion from Mary's perspective. Everyone can re-watch "The Last Temptation of Christ", this one is unnecessary. The opening and closing of Deep Sea Drop expresses the fate of women in a simple way. In 24 minutes, Joaquin appeared, with a beard-like look on his face, and his real-life wife Rooney Mara adored and stared at him, which is probably a reflection of the real relationship. The cover-up game is almost ambiguous, and Joaquin...

      The theme of justifying the name of Mary Magdalene is quite in line with the spirit of the feminist era, but it was made into a missionary movie with crazy and emotional scenes showing miracles. Phoenix's failed acting skills made people feel this way about him. The characters are particularly loathsome, what else does Maria do other than stare at Jesus affectionately? The only surprise is that the character of Judas is more prominent in the moving background boards, which is real and lovely....

    Evaluation action

    "Mary Magdalene" director Garth Davis provides a spiritual and tonal interpretation of the story of Mary and Jesus. A story of Jesus emphasizes what might be called a more feminine aspect of his journey to the earth. The film is properly told through Jesus' relationship with a woman. Gibson produced an action drama from the heart, trying to clarify the prediction. Rooney Mara, who plays Maria, has big eyes. The state of her gaze...

    Movie quotes

    • Daniel: You brought shame on our family. What did you think you were doing?

      Mary Magdalene: I needed to pray.

    • [first lines]

      Mary Magdalene: And she asked him, "What will it be like? The kingdom?" And he said, "It is like a seed, a single grain of mustard seed, which a woman took and sowed in her garden. And it grew and it grew. And the birds of the air made nests in its branches."

    • Mary Magdalene: I can't marry Ephraim. I'm not made for that life.

      Daniel: Then what on Earth are you made for? You want me to bind your breasts and shave your head - so you can become a man?
