‘Jesus of Nazareth’ Film Review
In a six-hour long teleplay, Jesus of Nazareth attempts to portray the spiritual heights of a remarkably idiosyncratic people on the face of the Earth. The Jews have been percolating, if not amplifying, the radical idea of a supernatural Creator which personally involves Himself in the personal history of every human being since their story

‘Lawman’ Movie Review
What is the Law? Frédéric Bastiat proclaimed it to be “organized justice”. And if justice, as reasoned, is the preservation of righteous action, then the Law is intended to organize society to maintain righteous conduct between individuals in society. The thought that no ruler is above the law is a recent phenomenon; that all are

’12 Monkeys’ Movie Review
Mr. Terry Gilliam offers us a haunting yet plausible interpretation of scientific dystopia in his pre-pandemic 12 Monkeys. The society depicted throughout the time escapade cannot but be helped to be compared to his previous Brazil Kafka-esque demeanor. Namely, it is the critical indictment of common people’s blind faith in man-made authorities and the folly

Cromwell Movie Review
Cromwell is a superb theatrical work which appropriately aims to reflect a transcendental moment in English history. The production quality, from wardrobe to set design, stupendously reminds the audience of a bygone era of overwhelming artistry in cinema. And rightly so, the efforts in staging the story of the England’s Civil War cannot help but

‘Juice’ Movie Review
The world where opportunity and dreams are non-existent creates a pressure cooker from the natural vitality of the human being to promote themselves in society. Juice tragically realizes the reality of a society which lacks the promotion of the general welfare. That is, in early 1990’s New York, there is no vision for adolescent teenaged

‘The Road to Perdition’ Movie Review
The Road to Perdition is the examination of the unfortunate circumstances of determining a fate which is short-sighted. It is to make aims at prosperity with short-cuts in mind. And, typical of organized crime, it is accepted that such a fate is a certainty. Perhaps this is why this film is so refreshing – the

![“In a six-hour long teleplay, ‘Jesus of Nazareth’ attempts to portray the spiritual heights of a remarkably idiosyncratic people on the face of the Earth...From which other people would God Almighty exercise once more His sovereign power to move humanity toward its predestined path of the Heavenly Way?...We see, then, in the place of the typical traps which plague every human society – the imbalances of human selfishness – the birth, life, and death of the “promised one”: the Messiah. It must immediately be remarked that the definition is one which is categorically Christian throughout the film. The Sanhedrin’s understanding of the Messiah as the “son of the Living God” is not of Jewish or Hebrew origin. This is, after all, the fundamental schism between the Christian Faith and the Hebrew; between those who remained faithful to the Old Covenant, and the ones with the belief in Kingdom Come through exercising faith in the son of the Living God’s personal trial with his Teacher. To the Hebrew, the Messianic Redemption is one caused by the doubtless self-certainty in this God’s existence within every waking day in the human race forever...utterly dissolving false beliefs which...[require] the need for human death; as opposed to the predestination of immortality and the resurrection of every living soul that has ever been granted the privilege of being seen in God’s sight; of every man, woman, boy, and girl given the chance to smile. Nevertheless...the moral idea of personal sacrifice to save humanity as the ultimate testimony of love...has promulgated mankind toward the heights...Jesus’s willful death to purge the world of darkness, paving the road to the World to Come...appreciates...that every individual possesses within his/her self the possibility to extend perfection into man [and] is the best representation of the better than good end of the Holy Creator and the Love of all His Children - regardless of Ancestry...And that is sufficient reason to enjoy the providential road as its pavement becomes ever more pristinely perceivable in man’s sight.” #onelove](https://adilettante.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
