Review of Exodus: Gods and Kings (2014) by Giantboy — 29 Dec 2014

Well this movie is certainly entertaining to look and considering who directed it (Ridley Scott) that should come as no surprise. Scott can probably do the "epic" thing in his sleep, so that part of the movie is covered in spades.

So that leaves us with the execution of the story, a story which most people are familiar with to some degree. It doesn't bother me that certain liberty's were taken to get the major points across, I guess I just felt a little underwhelmed by the whole exercise. Nothing really stuck with me as I left the theater. A movie like this needs to provoke thought, after all it is about some very big ideas.
