Ben Hur
When the movie Ben Hur debuted at the box office in 2016, it was filled with potential but didn’t quite live up to the movie hype. It amassed only $94.1 million against the budget of $100 million and drew some negative reviews by critics. I guess not everything can be a huge hit. However, we we don’t succeed in the way we expect, we learn from it and create something much better later on!

Some of the elements that were criticized included poor editing and camerawork. It also featured some historical accuracies, as it was set in the 12th century. So when Judah Ben Hur rode into the scene like a gladiator wearing a Jewish Star of David symbol, that actually wasn’t such a familiar symbol at that time, which only made it less authentic.
