I see what they were trying to do here; they wanted to create a film adaptation that still manages to capture the aesthetic of a live show, hence the unchanging setting.
Problem is, without the audience's cheering, it doesn't work, it seems tragic, and if it added applause it'd be even tackier.
Way I see it, if you are trying to make a film adaptation of a musical, it should either attempt to be a film in itself, or simply stay a live musical. Crossovers rarely work.
Still, A for effort.

Andrew Lloyd Webber should have been flagellated and nailed to the cross to rot for writing this piece of shit. Other than that, this is the only version of the only song on the rotting album that's downright O.K.

I may get hated for this but I actually prefer how Rik doesn't sing with the melody. It somehow makes it seem more powerful and evil. And when he sings "aren't you scared of me christ?" I was genuinely scared. But when the King Herod in the 1973 version sang this he just seemed like a child who wasn't getting his way. It's just my preference really..
