Sorry, cannot avoid comparison to the -59 version. Plot doesnt really hold together and lacks the dramatics. Scenes - like the famous naval battle - are confused and not well integated to the story. Jerusalem looks anything but the original, girls are riding horses dressed in their leggins etc etc. While the -59 was an epic record breaking Oscar-looter, this is just another contemporary movies.

A "historical" epic .... the raw dishonesty or ignorance of these christians truly amazes me. Meanwhile they might consider going to an actual library reading actual history books placed in the non-fiction area ... and not the bible which is placed in the fiction section of the library.
