Pros: It's nice enough, technically brilliant...
Cons: ... forgettable songs, weakish storyline, just overall nothing special
Summary: Since this came from the same team that brought us the brilliant Prince of Egypt, I had high hopes of Joseph: King of Dreams. Based loosely on the biblical story of Jacob’s son Joseph, who had the God-given gift of being able to interpret ... read more

Pros: Memorable songs, meaningful/inspiring story line, and appropriate for all ages.
Cons: People expecting it to be 100% accurate according to the Biblical account.
Summary: Joseph-King of Dreams is certainly not your average cartoon. It provides a well outlined plot based upon the Old Testament story of the trials and accomplishments of Joseph, the son of Jacob and Rachel (Genesis 37). This story is retold in ... read more

Pros: Wonderful Bibical movie!
Cons: Doesn't stick right to the Bibical story!
Summary: When this movie came out we had to get it. For one because of the great job they did with Prince of Egypt and for two because we are born again Christians who believe in the bible and want to raise our children with the same faith.

Cons: not 100% in line with the Bible
Summary: Forward
I have only recently seen "Prince of Egypt" on video for the first time. Shortly after having watched it, I began to see commercials for another Biblical story produced by the creative geniuses at Dreamworks.

Pros: A Biblical Story brought to life!
Cons: None
Summary: "Joseph, King of Dreams" was an exceptionally wonderful movie, full of great animation, spiritual music, and meaningful morals that we can all relate to. It is a prequel to the popular and also favorite of mine, "Prince of Egypt." Come with me as we ... read more

Pros: Music, graphics, story line
Cons: None
Summary: Dreamworks has done it again! Now that I have "The Prince of Egypt" memorized, I decided to try out another of Dreamworks films. And I was not disappointed.

Pros: *Some* neat visuals
Cons: Bad character design, poorly written songs
Summary: This prequel to Dreamwork's 1998, The Prince of Egypt, is one of the worst films to ever go direct to video. The film is directed by Rob LaDuca and Robert C. Ramirez, and has an all-star cast of Ben Affleck (Joseph), Mark Hammil(Judiah), just to name ... read more

Pros: The storyline
Cons: none
Summary: Joseph, King of Dreams, was a hit at our house. We rented it before buying, and loved it! With "The Prince of Egypt" being such a big hit with us, we knew this one would be too. My boys love cartoons, and I love them being able to learn ... read more

Pros: Subtle, serious, and inspiring; big-screen-worthy art and animation.
Cons: Forgettable songs; split voice casting of lead isn't completely convincing.
Summary: With most animated features skewing toward the lighter side, DreamWorks appears to be cornering the market on "serious" animation with their first direct-to-video release in that field, Joseph: King of Dreams. A sober Biblical ... read more

Nov 16, 2000
Pros: Well written and compelling story
Cons: Animation not as good as expected
Summary: I was anxious to see this movie since it is made by the same people that made Prince of Egypt. In Joseph King of Dreams, the Biblical account of Joseph was well depicted and well researched. The story was compelling and held the interest of adult and ... read more

Pros: animation, story
Cons: none
Summary: I would say that Disney has a little competition in form of Dreamworks. I really enjoyed Prince of Egypt, so even though I hadn't heard a lot about Joseph: King of Dreams, I decided to give it a chance. I am glad I did. I usually don't watch what I ... read more

Pros: Forum to introduce your children to dealing with many of life's issues.
Cons: The movie was too short.
Summary: My husband bought the DVD as entertainment for our children ages 13, 10 and 8. They all loved it, in fact we all LOVED it. The thing we loved most was the fact that it taught life lessons. Joseph went through a lot of trials but ended up on top as his
