Is this the best telling of Jesus' story?

After seeing both LTOC and POTC, I've never seen this before and was surprised by the high ratings. Makes me curious if this is the best telling of Jesus' story. What is the general consensus?

Saw this last year or so and I think this is the best one. Robert Powell is mesmerizing in this, truly beautiful.

Though The Passion of the Christ and Jim Caviezel are also fantastic!

These two along with Heston's Ben Hur and The Prince of Egypt are the cream of the crop of bible films.

Yes.
