Review of Ben-Hur (2016) by Greg C — 08 Sep 2016

Great chariot scene. Needs more emotional depth. This is a paint-by-numbers Ben-Hur. There is a ton of hand held camera work that seems to have a defective stabilizer. It's so jittery when it doesn't need to be.

If you are having a story where a principal character is touched by life and hands of Christ I really want to be moved, preferably to tears. Go see the '59 version.
