mm-39 Review of Exodus: Gods and Kings

Exodus: Gods and Kings (2014)

Another interpretation of the Bible

[7/10 · 21 December 2014]

Another interpretation of the Bible. Moses was portrayed as a man who had doubts, and struggled with God's will. The details of loyalty towards old ties and Moses' destiny were unravelled in Exodus story. Details of Egyptian life, and interpretation of miracles and events were portrayed in a manner where belief and doubt were sub stories in Exodus. How one sees God is challenged in the movie. Scott executed a film which creates a feel for the people, politics and the living conditions for the times. Bale, Edgerton, etc portrayed strong characters. Exodus will challenge peoples interpretation of the Old testament. As a man of faith, I found Exodus reflects, and challenges one 's beliefs, which is a normal struggle in one's life. Seven out of ten.
