There are too many slots, and I don't know if it's the director's problem or the editing problem.
1. Title of the film: The title of the film felt that the two religions were opposed, which further caused political problems. However, the content was completely different. In fact, it was either filmed completely out of religion, or it was in line with the title of the film, which was about Egyptian religion and religious significance. Conflict.
2. The confrontation between the two brothers: Ramses was rescued from Moses, we can know that the two of them are not bad, and the brother is still fighting with his mother for Moses! So what was the accident that suddenly appeared in the plot of Moses killing back to Memphis and pointing a knife at the other party in the middle of the night to "negotiate"!
3. The relationship between Moses and God: Aside from the religious factor, it is very understandable to use a boy as a metaphor for God. If we want to take Moses into a fine point, it is also logically reasonable. (After all, he turned from a prince into a slave and was exiled for thousands of miles if he didn't agree.) However, from the beginning to the end, there was no sign of the director's arrangement of mental illness! On the contrary, since someone was smashed on the mountain to shepherd the sheep, he was awakened by the second illness in his heart, and felt that he had to leave his wife and save the whole universe. (If it wasn't for the wrong clothes, I thought I was watching Batman...)
4. Response to the classics: It may be an editing problem. I feel that too many plots are very detached, especially the part of getting married, returning to Memphis, preparing for the uprising, etc., all of which are fragmented memories. I don't know because I think everyone knows this story anyway, so I can skip it, and I want to imply that these memories are unimportant in Moses' heart. But this omission will make people constantly recall the classic "Prince of Egypt", at least that one fully illustrates the inner feelings of Moses and Ramses.
Therefore, in order to (seem?) want to shoot the effort to get rid of the religious feeling, and the hard-working group performers, I can only give 2 stars.
