Review of Ben-Hur (2016) by Paul O — 19 Dec 2016
There is so many similarities of Chariot Racing and NASCAR. The noticeable differences are no chariot numbers to keep track, no sponsors, and no yellow flags when there is a wreck.
The movie was surprisingly really good. The young lead actors that played the brothers Judah Ben-Hur (Jack Huston) Messala (Toby Kebbell), and Nazanin Boniadi as Esther were extraordinary and look forward to seeing them in new movies.
Great rental and much better than expected. if you like early Persian films you will love this one.
Morgan Freeman as Sheik Ilderim is... well Morgan Fricken Freeman. great cast and directing. Story is well done. inclusion of spiritual element by adding Jesus was well incorporated.
