I originally gave it three stars, but after thinking about it later, maybe four stars is more objective for me.
I saw the introduction of this movie when I was in elementary school, and I always wanted to watch it.
The first part is very exciting. From the production point of view, I will give it five stars. It was really shocking for that era.
The reason why I originally wanted to give it three stars is because the theology of the film is relatively weak. To give a small example: Moses explained to Zipporah that the reason for his decision to go back was "your family is free, but my people are not". (I realized later that many audiences may not be able to accept films with strong theology)
The second reason I want to give three stars is that I saw some film critics say that this animated film has many discrepancies with the bible. Had to modify. This makes me a little uncomfortable: why does the movie have to add so many humanistic colors! Self-defeating, but people have such a misunderstanding!
After thinking about it, four stars are relatively objective. I am very satisfied with both the story and the picture production (five-star standard).
PS: This makes me eager to see the 1956 rave and very classic Ten Commandments?
