Exodus: Gods and Kings
(2014)
Directed by Ridley
Scott this Biblical epic stars Christian Bale, Joel Edgerton, John
Turturro and Ben Kingsley. A man raised by Egyptian royalty finds he
is of Jewish decent like the salves the kingdom relies on.
Starting from a modern
view point I found this to be a slightly different and interesting
take on the well known story. The story unfolds well and while not
completely faithful to it's source material I found it entertaining
as a non-believer. Some of the casting is a serious problem but if
you can look past that then this is a decent entry into a nearly dead
genre.
4/5
