over yourslef. When you go down the path of revenge there is always concequences and the outcome will not make you feel any better than before.
Aside from the deeper meanings of this film the action does not dissapoint. The whole film is a lead up to the openeing frame - the chariot race. Ben-Hur is in no way perfect and has flaws in its CGI usage but when you look beyond that it is a well paced film although it does leave out parts from the original storyline. That is to be expected as since the runtime is just over two hours - about 100 minutes less than the Charleston Heston Version.
I will not spoil the end for anyone who hasn't seen it but I highly reccomend this film with parental permission (as it is rated PG-13) and give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
