Variety

At once rich in historic and character detail and full of eye-popping tableaux, this new spin on the Moses saga sometimes out-DeMilles DeMille's 1956 live-action epic, "The Ten Commandments." Full Review

San Francisco Chronicle

An inspiring translation of biblical grandeur, turning the story of one of history's greatest heroes into an entertaining, visually dazzling cartoon. Full Review

Some good animation and music but.....

...it is The Ten Commandments with the controversial bits left out. This leaves a bonkers story featuring an aggressive and unforgiving God. Read and rate it

Wonderfull Movie and Great DVD. First DVD I see where animation really profits from the higher resolution and the better sound. Classical stories but modern and imaginative graphics that shows that creativity can be outside of Disney's studios. Read and rate it
