Remake but not that close to the Heston vehicle. Interesting character interplay with Jesus and the various characters. The underlying theme of forgiveness makes for interesting introspection. All in all, I would recommend this movie for the faith kiddies involved.

A great reminder of Christ's love and sacrifice for us and in teaching others to love in spite of opposition.

By far the best movie I have ever seen. The world we live in today is identical to the Roman times. Jesus Saves ALL.

This movie is different from the Golden Age Ben Hur with Heston. Same plot but in a different perspective. It's a great movie and would watch it many more times.

It’s not the unmitigated disaster early reviews suggested. Instead, it is a blandly competent and doggedly uninspired redo of material adapted a half-dozen times already.

Overseen by a director not known for his human touch and lacking a name star, except for Mr. Freeman, Ben-Hur feels like a film made on the cheap, although it looks costly.
