Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ (1925)

Erstwhile childhood friends, Judah Ben-Hur and Messala meet again as adults, this time with Roman officer Messala as conqueror and Judah as a wealthy, though conquered, Israelite. A slip of a brick during a Roman parade causes Judah to be sent off as a galley slave, his property confiscated and his mother and sister imprisoned. Years later, as a result of his determination to stay alive and his willingness to aid his Roman master, Judah returns to his homeland an exalted and wealthy Roman athlete. Unable to find his mother and sister, and believing them dead, he can think of nothing else than revenge against Messala.

An excellent film I feel is greatly underrated in some of the comments I've read here. "By today's standards" is an ignorant way of looking at art, but I guess that's typical for brains incapable of seeing something for what it is. This is an epic masterpiece. Over-acting? Try acting without sound. Far superior to some of todays 'epics' with their sensory overload CGI and weak storylines.

The most memorable thing about this film is the epic chariot race and the ship battle. The characters were cardboard cut-outs of people believed to exist in biblical times. The story was uninspiringly lifeless.

This is the first full-length silent movie I've seen and I actually quite enjoyed it. I haven't seen the '59 Ben-Hur either. There's a lot of action in this and it's also a very good story. The chariot race scene is way too long though IMO.

Subjectively speaking, the remake is obviously superior to the original silent classic technically. That's just like saying that The Matrix (1999) is superior to Metropolis (1927) also technically. However, this masterpiece outdoes the epic remake in a more objective way in basically every single aspect. What is funny, though, is that pretentious critics nowadays show harshness towards Wyler's version because of its popularity, when deep inside they know they fought against themselves quite strongly so they could rate it below 4 stars. They have no solid arguments whatsoever. The ones that criticize the silent version and put the remake over the original also lack solid reasons. Can't all of us be objective, then? Cinema is a serious game. And about Ben Hur: A Tale of the Christ, it is the best version of the story for a good number of reasons, almost reaching the scope of Griffith's Intolerance, below Abel Gance's Napoleon, but representing a longstanding legend for the Golden Age of US moviemaking. 99/100

One of Charlton Heston's classic roles. A fabulous Biblical story, involving the crucifixtion of Christ. Many other recognizable faces also star.
