Synopsis: Jesus Christ Superstar (2000)
Synopis: Director Gale Edwards's film is an updated stage version of Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber's acclaimed masterpiece. Experience the last seven days in the earthly life of Jesus through the magic and wonder of a catchy and inspirational score. From his triumphant entry into Jerusalem and the enmity that this naturally arouses to his trial by the sympathetic but ultimately partisan Pontius Pilate, follow Christ as he assumes the role he was born to play. Notably, in a career change that some British comedy fans may find a bit odd, Rik Mayall (known to fans of THE YOUNG ONES as left-wing New Waver Rick) stars.Features: Jesus Christ Superstar (2000)

1973 superior to 2000
, September 10, 2001Reviewer: phpratt - See all phpratt's reviewsI couldn't even finish watching this dreaded production. Ted Neely and Carl Anderson are far superior in every way. I thought the tempos were way too slow, and this really made it drag. The setting was bland, and the characters didn't have any life. Maybe this was because of the morbid tempos. There was nothing up lifting about this version. If I were Andrew Lloyd Weber, or Tim Rice, I'd have my name removed from this version. ...

Best show I've ever seen!
