"God in the sky, can you hear the mourning of the people? In this dark hour, help us and save us!" Ancient Egypt a thousand years ago was a representative work under the poisoning of the imperial system. The Egyptian palace was built on the hot desert , and it was not the Egyptians who built these palaces, but the Hebrews who were born as slaves. The cry at the beginning is the groan of the Hebrews being oppressed. Moses was a Hebrew born in such an environment. His biological mother felt sorry for Moses and did not want him to become the next Hebrew slave, so she secretly put him as a child into a basket, put him into the Nile River, and followed the river. drift away. Moses was a person favored by God, which can be seen from the beginning. The tumbling Nile did not drown Moses' life, but sent him to the Egyptian palace and the hands of the Egyptian queen, becoming the prince of Egypt. Moses grew up in the Egyptian royal palace, and for several decades, he lived in fine clothes and food. He never knew his true identity, and in those days as an Egyptian prince, he had no shackles to become a pharaoh, only the love of his parents and brothers. When he knew that he was a Hebrew, he resisted, feared, even angered at his own brothers and sisters, more disbelieving and at a loss, but he was seeing the "mother" who had raised him for many years—— The Queen of Egypt was later confirmed. But he remained obsessed with the status of an Egyptian prince, and took the initiative to oversee the construction of the palace after the Egyptian queen claimed that the love was real. But he accidentally pushed an Egyptian overseer off a construction platform several stories high, killing Huangquan. His heart was shaken and disturbed. What would he do if others found out that he was not an Egyptian prince, but a Hebrew slave? Moses chose to flee. He took off the wig and the extravagant decorations on his body, revealing his original appearance. Struggling to survive in the vast desert, he received orders from God. Even though he was still unwilling to the reality, Moses still shouldered the mission of saving the Hebrews, for whom he became an enemy with his brother who grew up with him. His heart was full of reluctance, but there was nothing he could do. Thousands of people who were still tormented in the desert were waiting for him to save. Moses conveyed God's will, and with God's power, he finally brought the Hebrews out of the fiery Egyptian hell and returned to the world of freedom to have their own lives. Moses was not the prince of Egypt, but he became the prince of Egypt by fate. In the years he grew up in the Egyptian palace, he was brave, determined, compassionate and kind, saving his fellow citizens and enjoying his world. Moses was the real prince.

    It can be regarded as an audio-visual feast. The style of painting is very pioneering. It is in the same line with the adult trilogy led by Osamu Tezuka in the 1970s and "The Wall" in the 1980s. Based on the development of technology, hand-painting has been assisted by computers. The expressiveness is amazing. If Moses and Ramses drove wildly at the beginning, they only used flexible perspective changes and wild painting styles to render the sense of action (and added a bit of leaky basic entertainment), then Moses at the back separated from the sea. , the gray tone of Ramses' death, and other scenes are simply avant-garde and exquisite works of art with strong emotions. In contrast, Hans Zimmer's soundtrack can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. The story is adapted from "Exodus". In fact, religion is a survival strategy in a specific environment. Behind it is the patriarchal dogma of cooperation within the ethnic society and encroachment of the outside world. The Hebrews threw their children into the Egyptian palace for several years. Later, he grew up to be a Hebrew who recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestry without a teacher. At that time, he said that having more children is always useful, and the people behind him are the real gods, so the ancient Egypt perished.

    The most epic animated film of all time, as far as I concern. Though I DON'T recommend people who always have judgements on religions to watch this.
