These guys don't seem to understand that Jesus' whole purpose was to die for us and that the Jews were merely the vehicle used.

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
John 19:30

When He said the words "It is finished", He was referring to his purpose to God. Without it, we would all be doomed. It seems that the Jews would be glad that they had a part in our salvation...

Jesus said on the cross, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." Doesn't that say it all? Jesus himself did not condemn the Jews, and therefore, neither should any other misguided person who doesn't understand the Gospels.

That said, it annoys me when Jewish leaders stand up and accuse Christian film makers of anti-Semitism. What are they afraid of, that seeing this movie will turn Christians into a rampaging mob from Czarist Russia that will start a progrom?
