A Mature, Serious, Animated Film....and a Story Worth Telling

by JediKermit JediKermit is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jun 23 '01
Pros: No talking animal sidekicks, no fart jokes, great visuals and story
Cons: Aaron gets the shaft (but not the rod)
If you're a fan of animation, you've wandered through a wasteland of biblical proportions in the last ten years. Aside from a few oases (the Toy Story movies from Pixar) and the occasional wadi (Dreamworks' Chicken Run), there hasn't been much to...

One of the Bible's Great Stories

by JustCathy Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Sep 03 '00
Pros: Excellent Animation and Musical Story, Great Story
Cons: Violence and Death
I am not usually one to watch animated children's movies. I would have to say that some of the Disney animated movies are classics, and will readily admit to having watched and enjoyed them. BAMBI is one of my personal favorites. However, if I have a...

A Great Movie, but the Book is Better

by barakah59 , Feb 26 '04
Pros: The Sound Track, The Animation, The Story, do I really need to go on?
Cons: Some important Biblical events could have been included.
When Dream Works decided to produce an animated musical film way back in 1998 they didn't hold anything back. Since this movie has been released for six years I have decided to give a slightly different review of what will become a classic for ...

Prince of Egypt: Regardless of your beliefs...

by lizzamay , Feb 26 '00
Pros: Superb animation, beautiful landscapes, does justice to ancient Egypt
Cons: Glosses over some important biblical details; I'm not an adherent to Judeo-Christian faiths, but it seems to me that if they were going to do a movie about the story of Moses, they could at least have made an effort to be as close to the original story as
... this is a spectacular film.

I've always had a "non-traditional" view of the bible; I think it has eloquent language, some historical accuracy, and some beautiful stories. However, I don't feel that the book should have as much...

An Artistic Milestone in the History of Animation.

by saritadutta , Jan 20 '04
Pros: Deep underlying moral value and Zimmer's enthralling score.
Cons: Storyline is a little mature and incomprehensive for young children.
The Biblical story of Moses has become a spiritual cornerstone of faith for millions of people worldwide. To adapt it to an animated motion picture presented an epic challenge to Dreamworks founders Steven Spielberg and Jeffery Katzenberg, which they ...

Deeper than Deep

by Greatpilgrim Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 07 '00
Pros: Stunning animation, majestic, powerful songs and score, great story, great characters, great cast
Cons: The only bad thing I can think of: the dumb portrayal of Aaron
When I heard Dreamworks was coming out with a movie on Moses, I envisioned an agonizing TV miniseries, starring either a superficial hunk or an old guy with a white curly beard. No way was I prepared for what I saw and heard.

When I heard it...

A Film That Changes the Rules

by Tallgent , Jun 12 '00
Pros: Reverent, emotional, epic, and engaging. Great character-driven animated film.
Cons: Defines the family film. Way too grim and somber for children. Best to be seen and talked about with the family.
The bar has been raised.

That was what many critics had to say about Dreamworks’ reverent telling of the Old Testament tale of Moses in the book of Exodus. In many ways, “Prince of Egypt” is a watershed in the history of animation. Very...

The Crown Prince of Animation

by Grouch Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Sep 27 '99
Pros: Eye-popping animation, a smart script
Cons: Melodic overload, strained attempt at comedy, Biblical liberties
Quick, name the major studio, whose name begins with the letter "D," that recently produced an animation classic.

If you answered "Disney," you might be wishing on a sputtering star. The Royal House of Mouse has a new...

Great Dipiction

by mama2tinka , May 06 '00
Pros: Not overly religious, great songs
Cons: none
I do not consider myself to be a religious person in any sense. I do not prefer to listen to gospel music, or watch religious films. But when The Prince Of Egypt came on cable close to Easter time I decided to watch it.

Moving tale from Exodus

by kimglenn , Apr 26 '00
Pros: Excellent movie for the entire family
Cons: The plagues might be scary for younger viewers
This is an animated film that could easily be referred to as an epic. I have never been so moved by a cartoon. But, no wonder, its made by Dreamworks; the teamup of Super-Producers, Geffen, Speilberg, and Katzenberg.

The movie begins, with...

An Incredible Cartoon

by gabbylowe , Nov 26 '00
Pros: Animation, Music, Story line
Cons: None
I bought this movie for the viewing pleasure of my little daughter and another little boy that I watch on the weekdays. I never thought I could become so entranced in it myself.

At the beginning of the movie, when Moses' mother sends him down...

Deliver us!

by FHfan , Nov 12 '00
Pros: Incredible and awe inspiring movie
Cons: Too many songs, shoddy attempts at humor
Thus sayeth I, "This movie rocks!" With two simple words touched by raw emotion, this movie starts out strong and gets even stronger, becoming an incredible visual, spiritual, and awe-inspiring experience. Okay. I'll admit that part of this...

Deliver Us

by TexasMomof3 , Apr 24 '00
Pros: Wonderful graphics, touching story lines
Cons: Not totally accurate depiction of the story of Moses found in the book of Exodus in the Bible, some scenes may not be appropriate for small children
I actually became extremely interested in seeing this movie long before it was released, simply because of the previews depicting some very moving scenes and some awesome graphics. Also, because of the fact that we attend church on a regular basis, it...

by KajunGran , Apr 18 '00

Thou Shalt Watch this with their Children!!!

by ShannonGray , Sep 22 '00
Pros: Brilliant entertainment for the whole family
Cons: none
I can't tell you how excited I was when I heard a movie was coming out about Moses! I took my daughter to the theater and am so glad we got the "big screen" experience. The effects are absolutely phenomenal and would rival "The Ten...
