Jesus Christ Superstar

my took me and my sister & brother to see it in the theatre. Halfway through though the film my Mom had to take us all from the theatre as we were all in tears : ( Poor Mom, didn't realize it would be upsetting/moving. We had the JC Superstar '8-track' and knew all the lyrics. We finally saw the film 3-4 years later on t.v. and it's been my favorite movie ever since. I can't count how many times I've seen it and it looks as fresh and timeless as it did then. I have an 9 year old son and he loves this film as much as I did as a child. He also loves Jewison's 'Fiddler O.T.R.' When he was three or four years and learning to fold laundry we would sing 'Matchmaker, Matchmaker' as we hunted for matching pairs of socks : )

Jesus Christ Superstar was an excellent movie and an excellent play. I first heard the soundtrack and then saw the movie, and the movie definitely fills in all of the blanks. I was confused in the beginning, when they all rode up in a bus, but I later caught on. Other than that the movie was great, the voices were great, (especially Judas, he really added anger and sorrow to his part) and the setting was perfect. I found it humorous when there were the anachronisms such as grenades and guns at the market. This was a great movie and I will watch it again and again. I am normally skeptical of musicals but I will always hold this close to my heart. This movie should be seen by anyone, and everyone. Peace!

I saw the stage version as a teenager and memorized the entire record during the summer of 1971. I don't remember when I first saw the movie, but I hated it. I didn't think that the Broadway show translated well at all. I am watching it right now, however, and I finally get it. It is a marvelous piece of work. I am appalled at the people who have criticized it for not being accurate to the New Testament, therefore, not relevant. Quite the contrary, I border on agnosticism and seeing this movie for the first time in 20 years has been a spiritual experience for me. It still speaks to me after 35 years. I also can't believe people who dismiss the music in and of itself. Are you crazy?

Speaking for the younger generation, I've never seen anything like it. This movie hit theaters 6 years before I was born and I only just saw it now in Nov. 2004. and I was so moved that I had to comment. Visually it was psychedelic, and the editing matches the music masterfully. The music rocks! Carl Anderson is beyond amazing as Judas, and ALL of the performances are really magnetic. I love singing along with Annas, Jesus, and Kiafass. I mostly listen to KoRn and Rap, so I never expected to remember (rock opera) lyrics and run around performing them. The feeling I got when 1st "experiencing" the movie was trippy. Similar to a live concert. The movie is outstanding and in my opinion will last for generations and generations. It speaks to a part of my soul and spirit.It says "right on" "rock on"

A group of young people arrive on a bus to a remote desert location. They unpack props, luggage, and a giant cross. Norman Jewison directs this musical based on the rock opera. There is limited dialogue. It's the biblical passion play with a modern twist. It has the iconic titular song. My favorite is "Everything's Alright". The most emotionally powerful scene is the whipping which is often the case in a passion play. The oddity is the blonde-haired, blue eyed Jesus with Judas played by one of few black main actors. Obviously, Jewison is not doing this deliberately. It is something overlooked back in the day and I can't subtract points in good faith. The two leads are solid performers and the cast is competent. It's an interesting interpretation.

Carl Anderson's hope of being immortal rested on the shoulders of his perfect performance as Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar. Even though the Academy Awards forgot to list him as one of the lost actors of 2003, Carl Anderson will forever be alive and remembered as long as this movie is around. More than 30 years have pasted and it is still breath taking in more ways than one. No matter what you believe, the images, music, and the passion of this movie are powerful. Anderson was content knowing that he lived long enough to see Jesus Christ Superstar become a masterpiece in the eyes of the world. What he didn't know was it was a masterpiece the day it premiered back in 1973.
