4) The Passion of the Christ
Directed by Academy Award winning director, Mel Gibson, The Passion of the Christ examines the last days of the life of Jesus as he moves toward the seminal moment of his life purpose: willingly suffering the wrath of God in the place of humanity as an atonement for the sins of the world — at once satisfying the justice of God and delivering mercy to His creation.
The film destroyed the box office, bringing in over $600 million world-wide and making it the largest grossing explicitly religious movie of all-time.
