Review of Ben-Hur (2016) by Heather M — 29 Mar 2017
Having heard so much about the record-breaking, 11 Academy Awards winner Ben-Hur of the 1950s, I was excited to watch this reimagining of the film. To my surprise, I enjoyed it very much despite my negative impression due to low ratings.
The cinematography was splendid as were the costumes and sets, the cast played their roles well in apprising the message that is love and forgiveness heals all wounds, and the concoction of both slow-paced sequences and action-packed ones made it impossible to find a dull moment.
