BTW, I also thought the whipping scene was over the top.

I haven't seen the film. But I think Gibson's point was to show the truthful magnitude of the sacrifice that was made. To santitize it even slightly would be to minimize it.

I think if you saw it, you would agree with me that the way Gibson portrayed this portion of the torment was excessive.
