Editorial Review: Description: The feature-length widescreen Director’s Cut of the Discovery Channel special – executive produced by James Cameron. In 1980, a bulldozer accidentally uncovered a first-century tomb in Jerusalem. Of the ten ossuaries (stone coffins) found inside, six bore inscriptions: Jesus son of Joseph, Maria, Mariamene (the name by which Mary Magdalene was known), Joseph, Matthew, and Judah son of Jesus. Dismissed by archaeologists as coincidence, the ossuaries were warehoused and forgotten. Twenty-five years later, filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici and his team took a fresh look at this astounding cluster of New Testament names. Granted unparalleled access, they went in search of the ossuaries…and the lost tomb. What they found may well be the most controversial archaeological discovery of all time. Features 80 minutes of exclusive bonus materials including: Interviews with executive producer James Cameron and director Simcha Jacobovici Expert Interviews: The Discovery 1980, Judeo Christians, The Early Christian Cluster of Evidence, The Sign of the Cross, The Chevron Symbol, Mariamne The Recreations: Behind the Scenes The Lost Tomb of Jesus Epilogue featuring James Cameron and Simcha Jacobovici Photo Gallery Trailer Amazon.com: Stills from The Lost Tomb of Jesus (click for larger image)

 Rating:  - Not Very ConvincingFirst of all, I'll mention some of the good qualities about the film. The production values were good, much of it was filmed in the Middle East, many of the actors were apparently Middle Eastern, the ancient scenes weren't filmed in English, and the story reads like a detective piece. Now, for the negative part. This documentary apparenty shook people's faiths for no good reason. Yes I have watched the documentary. I also looked at some evidence listed in favor of it printed from ...

It's also odd how the people in the warehouse brush it off like there's no chance it could possibly be Jesus. Also odd how the book of Phillip isn't included in the bible.. ****************!!!!SPOILER!!!!************************* But, for them to say that the one woman's remains in there HAD to be married to the Jesus in the tomb is kind of absurd. The woman could have been married to ... Read More Rating:  - You DecideWhile not all the facts are in, this film gives pause for thought, deep thought. In addition to the archaeological facts surrounding the find, "The Lost Tomb of Jesus" gives us a good idea of what life was like in 1st Century Israel. The film is well done, convincing, and may very well prove to be the actual tomb of Jesus Himself. You decide. Rating: - Much Better Than I ExpectedI took it for granted that there was something fundamentally flawed and overblown to the story of "The Lost Tomb of Jesus." But, actually, this film is a compelling piece of detective work. The filmmakers consult experts and piece together an intriguing thesis. And their admirable tracking down of the original tomb (buried under an apartment complex), makes for compelling filming. The film's thesis is very far from "airtight," but it is, nevertheless, quite interesting. Usually, if a scientific ... Read More Rating:  - Good production values but potentially misleadingI consider myself quite open-minded when it comes to these type of religious historical documentaries. In fact, I am usually thrilled at the idea that someone discovered archaeological evidence of a religious person. Thus, it's strange for this documentary to really turn me off. I'm mainly annoyed by the narration and structure of the documentary. I think if it wasn't for that, I might have liked it more. Two things bothered me in particular: one was the way the documentary presented its arguments ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
