It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

The tale of Moses and family is one of the best known tales in the history of the world: Hundreds and hundreds of pieces of art represent it, some of them masterpieces. The ten commandments of 1956 is one of the best movies ever made. Prince of Egypt is one of the most beloved Dreamworks movies. You have resources. You have great voice actors. You have reknowned animators. You have everything. How can it go so wrong?Let's forget for a moment about the animation (it is horrible beyond words) The voice acting is bad, everyone sounds bored. The story has nothing going for it, it is not even well redacted. The jokes are bad, extremely bad. Not even the plagues were enticing. I repeat: a haze, extreme darkness, severe infections... not even the angel of death is good. Nothing in this movie is good. Find other movie. Not even god can forgive this piece of garbage for existing.

I was surprised how emotional I got.I knew the Biblical story but this explained the characters more about how they helped Moses.The Pharaoh was a cruel man. He saw the Hebrew population growing and ordered all of the babies killed. Moses was saved by his brother Aaron and sister Mariam and put in a basket by their mother and put in the water.Aaron his older brother who Moses did not meet until he was and adult. God spoke to Moses but he felt inferior to represent God. God had Aaron help Moses.The animation was different. It was different not bad. It seem there were a lot of oriental names in the creation of the movie. One of the credits says Sparky Animation Singapore. The Hebrews were slaves in Egypt their animated images made them look to healthy, some were fat and some with sexy clothes. Pharaoh had the slaves work extra hard so to me being fat is not result of working hard being strong maybe but not fat. I don't believe they were fed well in Egypt during that time.The music was very emotional. As I watched how God loved the people and Moses tried to obey God I became very emotional. It reminds me of how bad the people where and always wanted something from God and never satisfied. It made me think about myself too. How God loves us and we disobey and don't give God the respect and love he deserves.I thought the message of this movie was excellent. It showed how God saved his people the Hebrews, how he fed them, took them through hard times and allowed them into the land HE Promised them.It showed how God punished those who hurt his people and that he can be vengeful to their enemies.It showed how when we have little to no faith in God he still loves us and keeps his promises.Elliott Gould played the voice of God, I thought he was excellent. The drawn expression in the character with their facial expression and eyes showed the love of the characters for one another. It was very touching as well.

WOW!! how did they get people to voice-over this movie? I had to sit through the "Music video" that they played at a Jeremy Camp concert to advertise for this movie. It looked like they were playing a crappy video game on the screen. I have seen other reviews for this movie, that say how great the animation is... I have seen better graphics on the original Xbox. Just because you are a Christian doesn't mean you have to stand for every pice of crap that is labeled Christian. This movie makes me ashamed to bea Christian!! Go out and buy yourself a copy of the Prince of Egypt, and stay away from the box office on this one!!! Run Don't Walk!!

How can you ruin such a great story? Answer: A. Insipid direction.B. World's worst imagery and animation.The story flounders as it focuses on the relationship of Moses to the Pharoah ("Ramses".) Were they at one point buddies? Did something sour Ramses and turn him into a grumpalumpagus? Who knows or cares? But hold on, the worst is yet to come: the nutso physiques of the characters. The leading men (Moses, Ramses, Aaron) seem to all sport chest implants that would shame the late Anna Nicole Smith. OK, so Moses and Ramses were raised in wealth, how did Aaron manage to acquire such gargantuan pecs while some of his compadres appear as emaciated as a displaced person.Legs and torsos seem to have only the most casual acquaintance with one another. Eyes are over-sized in the manner of the Keane kids of the 60s.Larding out the cast (pardon the pun)are anonymous Hebrew supernumeraries who are impossibly wide and fat. While that might be very progressive in giving work to morbidly obese cartoon characters, it's very jarring to the viewer. Kids (baby Moses, young Miriam, the Pharoah's first-born) manage to be repugnant rather than endearing.Oh, and the color palette. WAY over the top.The only positives: Eliot Gould and Ben Kingsley.I saw this shortly after it opened in town. It was playing only in an obscure theater located in a low-end mall. I'd say there were under 40 other customers.What a dud.
