Wow a great box office hit for Mel Gibsons film $117 millon since the movie opened in the US.I am eagered to see it but still it hasn't arrived at the Puerto Rico theaters.

Good for the movie. I hope it becomes the all-time highest grossing film.

Ummm Garrett to pass Titanic the best $$$$ movie of all times wont be easy but time will tell.

the French have already banned the movie as being anti Semitic (and the French should know being anti-Semites themselves) and I suspect that other European nations will follow suit which will limit the worldwide box office take. Also, the really big grossers are movies people watch more than once which in this case may not happen due to it's intensity. It will still do very well but is not likely to become the top grosser of all.

Just wishful thinking on my behalf, but I think it would be wonderful.

Agree Garrett that it would be extraordinary if the Passion gets to the top of the gross movie but as Steve said the theme may not get the movie to be seen in many countries.

I do not plan on going to see the movie.. I don't like too many rated R movies..

I don't go see many movies in the theatre but I will go see this one.

I am a huge Sandra Bullock fan.. I saw Murder by Numbers {it was rated R} and I thought that was 1 of the worst movies she has ever been in..

Best Rated R movie I ever saw: Panic Room

I haven't been to the theater since "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" came out.

Jesus is a lot more important than a sinking ship!!
I would love to see this take #1 !!!!

Yeah, but "The Passion" doesn't have....Kate Winslet....

Can Kate Winslet take you to Heaven???

LOL...I thought so....GOD IS THE WAY.....remember that and maybe you will have Kate one day

Kate Winslet might not get me to Heaven, but she's a good head start!

Remember..."Good little girls go to Heaven; bad little girls go EVERYWHERE!!!!"

If one person is influenced for God because of this movie, it will be worth it. I think that many, may people will be better as a result of seeing it.By the way, I am one of the very few people who hated The Titanic. I kept thinking that Kate Winslet looked way to old for Dicaprio in the movie.

France is the only European country where there is still no distribution deal for the movie. And I saw it today...it is not anti-Semitic.
