Review of Ben-Hur (2016) by Madmaxfuryroad — 04 Sep 2016

Ben-Hur is a beautifully told Christian movie based on a story I have never known. I didn't have high expectations at all and in fact the first 5 minutes were pretty boring. But the film maintains its balance and just gets better and better all the way till the end.

The race scene towards the end was very intense and well-crafted. The acting in this movie was great and Morgan Freeman just made me laugh as a character in this film. The movie had a perfect runtime and I loved the connection to Jesus in this film.

I think this is a great Bible movie to watch and I certainly was entertained. I was really surprised with this film and there was even a clapping ovation at the end.
