Ben-Hur
Great 66 Points 1959

More than just the chariot race, Ben-Hur virtually defines big screen epic. At three and a half hours, it’s a lot of movie, full of bravura performances, grand visuals, and tasteful religious symbolism. One of only three movies to win 11 Oscars,1 it deserves the acclaim that accompanies the…

OK 17 Points 2014

Standard war movie fare:  A small group of jarheads against all odds, survive against the Taliban while carrying out an unlikely mission of having to rescue a local female political hero. Decent (albeit mindless) shoot-em-up entertainment is sometimes just what the Dr. ordered for war movie buffs.

Sand Castle
OK 17 Points 2017

Decent, albeit run-of-the-mill war movie set in Iraq. You’ll get the requisite hard fighting action and the tough staff sergeant, and the film does a good job highlighting the turnaround and eventual wisdom from a reluctant soldier. If you are a war movie lover, it won’t be a waste of time. If no…

Son of God
Barely OK 17 Points 2014

Yet another take on the Christian biblical history of Jesus, but this time from the perspective of a rough but chisled Roman Legionaire. This is actually refreshing, because it doesn’t really focus too much on the religious stuff, but rather comes across as more of an ancient Roman ‘whodunnit’. …

Ben-Hur
OK 17 Points 2016

My second watching of an unnecessary remake in the last few months, Ben Hur impressed far less than the Magnificent Seven. It just came across as another of those overly-long Roman era epic movies that nobody ever heard of until they showed up on Netflix playlists of B-side films.

Pretty Bad 7 Points 2004

I’m torn on this as I really disliked this move. A lot. And its not because it was a poorly made movie – quite the opposite actually. This movie was very well made in every aspect. I can’t commend the film enough in the technical aspect. The storytelling was good, the acting was great and it…
