100. Ben-Hur

I have to admit, I had NO idea what this movie was about going into it.  I was vaguely aware that Charlton Heston was in it and that it is known for having the tire tracks from the camera truck in the chariot scene (they are not in the picture on the right, but you get the idea). 

I was pleasantly surprised and rewarded by the almost 5 hours we invested (counting bathroom and drink refill breaks).  The acting was engaging, the story line kept changing and the endless supply of greasy men and women with leprosy made for an epic story line.  

All in all, I recommend the movie for a lazy Saturday.  Don't be intimidated by the epic-ness (the DVD was 2 discs).  Enjoy a story reminiscent of Forrest Gump (if Forrest lived in the time of Jesus).  Watch for the Sermon on the Mount, Pontius Pilate, and the crucifixion of Jesus to provide landmarks in Judah Ben-Hur's life.
