Exodus: Gods & Kings

Egyptian Princes Moses (Christian Bale) and Ramses (Joel Edgerton) are raised together as brothers. When Ramses becomes pharaoh, Moses is his most-trusted adviser. However Moses soon discovers his Hebrew parentage, and Ramses banishes him to the desert – often a death sentence. But God has a mission for Moses: Free the Israelites from slavery. Moses returns from exile and demands that Ramses let his people go, but the arrogant ruler is unmoved, leading to a battle of divine wills.

Critic Reviews:

• " John Turturro, Aaron Paul, Sigourney Weaver and Ben Kingsley add support in this sometimes campy and shallow, sometimes solemn, but mostly absorbing interpretation of the story of Moses. " – Udita Jhunjhunwala

• " Attempts to tell a famous tale with a rarely experimented, distinct realism, even though the most popular interpretations are mythical. " – Mike Massie

• " It was very much pleasurable seeing all those buildings and ancient Egyptian construction work in such detail. " – Tony Asankomah
