Zipporah had a bigger role than Aaron in the film. The special effects really brought to life the immensity of the miracles in the whole story. The measure of “looking at your life through heavens eyes” sent the message home to my daughter of the sovereignty of God. Having seen four versions of this story, I was amazed at the simplicity of retelling the essence of the story, and of things that matter, that every life has purpose and meaning and God wants to reveal Himself. All this with an outstanding musical score, and an all star cast of voices. The slaves, and their labors came to life on the screen.

The scenery was very accurate in portraying the Nile delta, the river, vegetation, and the architecture was immense and full of grandeur. The animation is wonderful, even the hieroglyphics were superbly drawn. I could have gotten picky at things that were left out or different interpretations of events, but, all in all, it was an AWESOME change from the animation fluff and drivel that my children have been subjected to by the major studios. As a Children’s Pastor I wanted to see it, but I also wanted to see it as a parent with one of my children. I went to the film with my 9 year old daughter Erinn. And maybe, just maybe, the prince of Egypt will lead a few people to the Prince of Peace.
Maybe “The Prince of Egypt” can attract seeking hearts through the flickering silver screen that would never approach the worn wooden altar. Perhaps religious broadcasting should take note of Moses going to Hollywood. The idea is that instead of interpreting it, let them watch it and then we’ll talk about it.” Will audiences believe the scene? More importantly, will they realize that they, too, can have a relationship with their Lord? When asked what he wants his children to take away from the film, production designer Darek Gogol responds, “I pray they’re going to get it and find the values in the film. It is the central, pivotal moment of the film.” And Hickner has reason to be proud with a Hans Zimmer score that beckons, weeps and inspires undergirding the visual images, the animation captures the solemnity of the experience, Moses’s human reactions and the Lord’s comforting response to Moses’s terror. You have to believe it works in order for the rest of the film to work. Director Steve Hickner says, “The proudest moment for me was that we actually got the burning bush scene to work. This experience for Moses is witnessing God speaking through a burning bush. “A man has an experience with his God” which forever changes his life, his perceptions and his people’s history. In the words of DreamWorks principal Jeffrey Katzenberg. And despite the many textual inconsistencies, the film’s central theme is clear. It is not intended to be a literal interpretation, but entertainment with a positive message. īefore you write a letter of disappointment to the creative people at DreamWorks, consider again the film’s introductory mission statement of keeping intact the essence, values and integrity of the Exodus. Other discrepancies exist, enough to possibly spur a broadcast contest of guess the number of fictionalizations. James Kennedy and Pat Robertson-several points of biblical inconsistency emerge.Ī partial list of divergences: Moses is not reunited with his mother as an infant, he speaks flawlessly and therefore does not need Aaron’s eloquence, he kills the Egyptian by accident rather than murdering him, Aaron is reluctant to support Moses and discourages him from speaking to Pharaoh, the particular responsibilities of the Hebrews during the Passover are largely… passed over. So although DreamWorks SKG carefully secured the views of many theologians and religious leaders-including those of NRB president Brandt Gustavson and members Ted Baehr, James Dobson, Billy Graham, D. The film’s introduction states it is “true to the essence, values and integrity” of the story.
If you’re expecting a scene-by-scene visual rendering of the biblical account of Exodus, remember that the studio is a Hollywood entertainment company, not a religious broadcaster. But don’t go to the theater with a pocket Bible, a pen light and a yellow highlighter. Awe-inducing, ground-breaking artistic and computer-generated special effects endeavors aside, “The Prince of Egypt” is a good one. Many Hollywood directors insist the key to a successful film is a good story. (Note: The “Prince of Egypt” is in full-color, though these pictures are not)
