Ben-Hur is a new version of the epic biblical-era tale, which was most notably brought to the big screen in the Oscar-winning 1959 Charlton Heston classic. This action-packed take follows Judah Ben-Hur (Jack Huston), a Jewish prince who's betrayed by his brother and forced into slavery, eventually seeking his revenge on the chariot track. Expect lots of graphic Biblical-era combat, with violent swordplay, people being shot with arrows and set on fire, and more. There are also harrowing scenes of galley slaves drowning when their ship sinks, an extended chariot-race sequence in which bodies are thrown into the air and trampled by horses, and a crucifixion. But helping to counterbalance that are the movie's clear themes of compassion and humility.
Always Original was best..!!!

Kidulthood is a movie that isn't going to be everybody's type of film. The movie does focus on teenager's becoming adults and what the movie does so well is showing what's really happening with teenager's in Britain.


Kidulthood (2006) 6/10
R | 1h 29min | Crime, Drama, Romance | 3 March 2006

The follow up to Kidulthood (2006), which I loved. This was a disappointment. It follows the baddie of the first piece after he gets released from 6 years in prison and tries to turn his life around and get on the straight and narrow, before being unwittingly sucked back into the street violence. Most of the characters from the first one returned, but they didn't reintroduce them so if you hadn't seen the first one


Adulthood (2008) 5.8/10
1h 39min | Crime, Drama | 20 June 2008
