Son of God movie (Hollywood, CA)—Approximately ten years ago, Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ" blew moviegoers and film critics away with its cinematic message of redemption. Results were immediate. People's lives were touched and saved, hearts were rededicated to Jesus, and Hollywood was forced to sit up and take notice.

This last weekend's opening success of the much touted "Son of God" film promises to have the same effect. Reports from a variety of sources confirm it's a runaway hit in theaters.

Son of God movieA Newsmax report says the film has "confounded Hollywood elites, mainstream critics and industry experts with a staggering $26.5 million box office take." 

The report noted that the success "also revealed the huge divide between the Christian fan base and mainstream movie critics. The film attracted favorable ratings of 22 percent from critics at Rottentomatoes.com, while 83 percent of fans like it."
