Aramaic spoken in Gibson's "The Passion" is faked

Maybe some of you already know , but the "Jesus film" can
be seen online with a western syriac (classical , not modern) dubbing.
(There is also a neo-assyrian and chaldean versions)
The dubbing is great , it's like a living peshitta (peshitto in fact...)


Even if i really liked the Passion , it think it would have been better
to dub the aramaic dialogues with assyrian voices like in the
Jesus film. To me it the aramaic in the Passion really sounded like
ashkenazi hebrew.

the link for the syriac film :
