human divinity

The movie scenes are very big and beautiful. The war scenes shot from a high altitude are very beautiful. The chariots, horses, spears, shields, and armors are all beautiful. It feels like a heyday. Later, the large slums of the Hebrews, the tattered clothes, the dirty and haggard faces, and the movement of a large number of people are all very good and have a sense of substitution.

When it comes to the ten disasters, it is very terrifying. From the crocodile to the first born, it is too cruel. I would also love to ask the questions that the Egyptians asked. Then I remembered at this time, after I read Exodus or the prince of Egypt, I made up my mind not to read this story again. I will remember it again this time.

It is said that the director is an atheist, trying very hard to convince the audience that this is a biblical story, a divine story, but I think it is a failure. All the time, the director himself is refuting divinity. Even if Moses had hallucinations or really saw God, he wasn't sure. God was someone who would get angry and argue with others. It really didn't look like much. I like the ending when Moses still went home to find his wife and son, he played the games he played with his son, and said the love words he said to his wife on their wedding night. At this time, Moses was a complete man, there were no miracles, and Still the same as before, not many people who have changed, although he brought in so many "my people". This is where I thought the director revealed his atheist nature. There is also the talkative minister who explained to Ramses why there were crocodiles first, then toads, maggots, flies, and dead livestock. His explanation was that many people doubted the real cause of the disasters that occurred in Egyptian history, and it made sense. , for scientific reasons.

During the whole process, the director was very serious and serious about finishing the story, including when a Hebrew man came out from the beach in the later stage and said that we are no longer slaves, we can’t do what we can do, and Moses told Joshua What can they do when they go to Canaan? If they already exist as a country, it all implies the follow-up part of the story, but it is still quite abrupt and not integrated into the story. People who have not understood the story of the Bible will feel this The two bridges are too independent.

Needless to say, Bell's performance is quite powerful, and Ramses is also not bad. Fan has inspiration. When he is sad, he is very sad, when he is helpless, he is very helpless, and when he hates, he is very hard.

See the story of Egypt for the last time, mark it.

    Unexpectedly, it is in such a rigid form. Most of the time, it reminds people of the song "A surprise soldier crosses the Chishui River, the Wujiang River is in danger of flying over, and the soldiers are coming to Guiyang to force Kunming...", and when the gods are punished, there is a taste of Stephen King. , weirdly tight. Would Mr. Tony like such a movie?
