The epic story of Moses, who rebelled against Ramses and led the Hebrews to the Promised Land. With Ridley Scott in command, an American super-production is to be expected, and that is what he delivers, with a clear indication of whose side he’s on – similar to Darren Aronofski’s Noah. The stunning cast includes Christian Bale as Moses, Joel Edgerton as Ramses, and Sigourney Weaver and Aaron Paul as co-stars. The magnificent variety of special effects are spectacularly over-the-top, and the lack of character depth is flagrant.Ridley Scott fans will run to see it; neophytes will appreciate the greatly expected – and obligatory – ending, which is about all this movie has going for it...
