Summary: Excellent
Review: The thought of the "Ten Commandments" being told again and for both Adult/Children was done far better than expexted. If you can take the time to really "SEE" the movie, you will find that the Director and the rest of the "Crew" did an EXCELLENT job in bring us closer to ourselves and our fellowman. For those that have "READ" the Bible and found some fault with the movie, I do feel for you. This was a very good way for me to explain to my Children what has happened in the past and what we must do in the future. Look at "The Prince of Egypt" as a great movie. For thats what it is. Thank you Dreamworks for the way this Biblical Story was done, I "Hope" that you do not stop with this story.

Summary: Made me open my Bible again
Review: For those who give the Prince of Egypt one star because it isn't exact - After I saw this movie, I went home and opened my Bible for the first time in a long time and read the Exodus. I wanted to "compare" the movie and the Bible story. This movie is probably encouraging others to do the same. How can you fault it? Even though it doesn't follow the Exodus to a "T," it should be lauded for giving many reason to read or re-read the one Book that may have been sitting on a bookshelf or in a closet somewhere gathering dust. That is a blessing! As I explained earlier in a review on 9/15, I truly love this movie! God Bless!!

Summary: God has found His mouth on earth
Review: God has found His mouth and from His mighty lips between the folds of his magnificent beard comes the voice of Moses through the many obviously religious and God fearing artists who conspired to bring His Word to the swinish hordes cowering in the shadow of Satan666 who probably didn't enjoy this film. Having said that, it's a bit slow.

Summary: Really good
Review: I think the movie is really good compared to Disney's Mulan. I mean the movie was realstic and it had really good music . It's kinda sad that the media don't regonized "Prince of Egypt" as a good movie. But yet they continue to focus on Disney's movies , which aren't as good as "Prince of Egypt"

Summary: Very close to actual Bible story, but not close enough...
Review: Why the movie matters: This well-known Bible story is being told by Hollywood, but in animation. This way, it has more of an effect on kids, but some adult humor in places. The cast: Val Kilmer, Sandra Bullock, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jeff Goldblum. The story being told: I've known the story of Moses for as long as I can remember. This retelling of how Moses and his brother Rameses, the Prince of Egypt, how driven apart by their beliefs and true heritages. Moses leaves Egypt, and his past, to join his real family--the Hebrews. When the burning bush in a cave starts talking, Moses starts walking, and right back to Egypt to free his people. The story behind the story: Well, I've read Exodus, and I've been read to from Exodus, and I know this story pretty well. Although before the opening credits said Historical and Artistical Liscenses existed for the film, I was dissapointed. There were essential parts taken out to "better portray the story." In a world where technology rules, I don't think these things should have been turned around. Kids will learn one of the most famous stories wrong. All in all, directors Brenda Chapman, Simon Wells (Balto), and Steve Hickner did an overall well job. Release Date: VHS and DVD copies are now available at nearly every store selling such equipment. The Outlook: The movie did well in the theatre, it should do equally well on video release. Especially with the hit song Miracles from sensations Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston.

Summary: My hearts so full....I can't explain
Review: This is without a doubt one of the best movies that I've ever seen in my entire life. I left the movie with tears streaming down my face. And it is one of the best 9 movies that I have ever seen in my 29 years of life. I've seen this movie at least 18 times on the big screen and did not mind shelling out the money to see it each time. Along with my multiple viewings I even went so far as to write out the film transcript (if anyone reading this wants it feel free to contact me). As spectacular as the animation was that was not what moved me about this movie. In these days of creampuff movies it was so nice to see a film with a very good plot and character development. Rameses and Moses were so well drawn. Even though Rameses was a villain he wasn't the usual one dimensional one portrayed in films. He does a deplorable thing by keeping the Hebrews in bondage. But he does so because he is too proud to be seen as a failure and as the weak link especially considering the long and prestigious footsteps he has to follow. Many of us can relate to that. As for Moses he isn't the fearless leader that the makers could have made him out to be. He is reluctant at first to go and face Pharoah and instead adopting a Smug attitude when the Egyptians are suffering. He feels hurt and compassion because Egypt once was his home and these were his people. He even breaks down in tears after his brothers son dies. This makes him more of a human being and the type of character most of us can relate to. Normally whenever I see a Biblical adaptation for the screen it is nothing but a mockery but this time the makers of the film were respectful to the three faiths for whom this film is so dear. In a bit of politcal correctness I was finally happy to see that someone realised that Egypt is NOT in Europe and the hues of the characters reflect this. In response to the claims by some that there was nothing to learn from this movie outside of the Bible. I offer this strenuous objection. I learned A LOT from this film. I learned that having character and integrity is the most important thing of all. I could not help but admire the way that Moses not only once, but twice walked away from a comfortable life because it was the right thing to do. He could have remained in Egypt after he killed the guard. His father and brother would have forgiven him. But because he could no longer remain blind to the injustice that was going on around him he left. He also did not have to leave Midian and follow Gods urging to liberate his people. He could have stayed exactly where he was. As a Christian I was reminded of how God has delivered me from misery and despair. I was also reminded of how as a woman of African descent God has delivered my people out of bondage. I have a big apology to make, when I first saw a poster for this movie I assumed that POE was simply a thinly veiled attempt of two "groups" to go at each others throats in a film. But after I saw the film my opinion immediately changed. This is a universal story which can be applied to people all over the globe in any time the present, the past and the future. This is because human nature does not change, we will always have a need to feel superior to some other group and feel that it is our "right" to put them down and mistreat them. Look around the world and we still see one ethnic group acting cruelly towards another because they think that it is their right to do so. One does not even have to look around the globe just look around you and see how we treat each other. Rudeness and un-civilty may not be the same as keeping people in bondage, but like slavery it too helps to crush the human spirit. This is so wrong. This is one of the (many) lessons I learned from seeing the Prince of Egypt. We must view and treat others with respect and dignity no matter how better we feel we are than they are. This is a terrific movie! Which I believe Believer and Non-believer will enjoy tremendously. I am on my knees as a Christian, an artist and a patron of films to Dreamworks for putting out such a high quality film (for those who moan about techniqualities in animation should get a grip 99% of the viewing public would not know the difference). Though I seriously think that it really is not suitable for Children under 12 years old. Much of the significance is very heavy and may fly over the heads young ones (which is why I think that the movie did not make as much money as it should have. My only fault---it's too short!!

Summary: A Biblically accurate and stunning film. Bravo!
Review: Finally, a secular movie studio got it right! For years, the Christian community has taken the movie makers to task for not representing the scriptures and the people of the Bible accurately and truthfully. Now one has come very close and has done it in fine style. See it! Buy it! Lets show the secular movie makers that we really appreciate what they have done! Maybe if we support this one (with our pocketbooks), there will be more of this caliber film ... to the Glory of God.

Summary: Totally Disappointed!
Review: I was anticipating the release of this movie for a long time. When it finally was released on video I went right out and bought it, thinking it would be an excellent way to teach my children about Moses. Was I ever disappointed!!!! It was not accurate at all. Where was Aaron? He was with Moses throught the miracles and wonders and they never even showed him much. There was so much that was inaccurate that I wanted to return the movie back to the store and get my money!!! The ending was even more disappointing. Bible it was and didn't rent it before purchasing it. I had thought if the reviews are good then it would be excellent for my children. Even Christian programs were raving about it. The animation is awesome, but that is all that is any good.
