Where to Watch Ben-Hur
- Gianni CavuotoNovember 12, 2025I am not sure I really like this version, it is not horrible but the original is much more dramatic and better acted....most importantly the action was waaaaay better. It's worth a watch right after you have seen the original to compare. Leave a comment on how you would compare them, i'm interested.
