In 1988, the Vatican published Criteria for the Evaluation of Dramatizations of the Passion, with a list of nine points that any future depictions of Passion Plays are to use as guides. Gibson's movie ignores every one of them.

Because it isn't a Roman Catholic Church sponsored work. It's Mel Gibson's personal testimony about the Passion.
