I had pretty much the same complaint as the author did, only about The Passion of the Christ (and in the reverse) - it was "too Catholic" in content for my tastes.

I knew quite a few Reformed/Calvinist persons who rejected the Passion of Christ for that reason. I don't think that you could imagine how funny that strikes me (as a Catholic)...as if any portrayal of Our Lord or the gospels could be "too Catholic". ; )

Catholic ain't a taste.

Well, I liked The Passion despite noticing some Catholic elements. I thought it was very well done. The inclusion of demons was a bit odd, but I would not surprised if Satan was witnessing the victory of Christ.
