   Jan 10, 2024 · A religious epic by Jeymes Samuel that fails to find the plot and the tone of its own story. Clarence, a street hustler and atheist, becomes an apostle of Jesus in A.D. 33 Jerusalem, but his cynicism and lack of faith clash with his quest for power and glory. The film is a farcical exploit with a slick visual style, but also a political statement that undercuts its own message.
