Exodus: Gods and Kings (2014)
How Absurd! (Spoilers)
Outrageous! The movie started out okay, so I gave it a shot. I'll admit that I had really low expectations going into it but sometimes movies surprise me. But then the movie went way off course from the Bible story. The worst part of it was when they showed God being a little boy. Really?! Instead of God speaking through the burning bush to Moses, he is shown in the form of a little boy and he keeps popping up throughout the whole thing. He says "I am" like he is God but there is no conviction behind it and it was totally sacrilegious. And then I got to the part where the people were taking up arms against Pharaoh. They were literally sharpening swords and preparing to fight like they could take on Pharaoh's army. This happened instead of God sending the plagues and being the one in control. The whole thing was ridiculous. Just like with "Noah," Hollywood ruined another great Bible story with a terrible movie. Sometimes it is okay to make changes to an original film to make it a new "work of art" but in this case it was completely wrong since it was about the Bible and besides it left out fundamental parts. To be certain, I will stick to watching "The Ten Commandments" instead.
