The Ten Commandments
SCORE: 80
The Ten Commandments is a reader requested review. This movie is extremely well known. It follows the life of Moses from the Holy Bible. The movie deviates in a few areas from the Biblical account. Overall The Ten Commandments stays close to the historical accounting. Families will be interested in some of the subject matter in this movie.
The Ten Commandments is all about freeing man from slavery. The Ten Commandments asks an important question. Who owns man? The state? Or God? As the government gets more oppressive we have to echo that question. Do we want to be slaves to the state? The Ten Commandments shows the bondage of slavery.
Since The Ten Commandments is set in ancient Egypt we have lack of clothing, enticement to lust, violence, blood, and death. There is also political intrigue, power struggles, lies, and plenty of coveting. Certain characters in The Ten Commandments are evil. There is no ifs, ands, or buts about it. The Isrealites also quickly forget the wonderful things God did for them.
God is represented extremely well in The Ten Commandments. Moses interacts closely with God on multiple occasions. The burning bush, and pillar of fire look great in The Ten Commandments. So does the parting of the Red Sea. The outfits look authentic, and so do the locales.
I left The Ten Commandments with a few interesting thoughts. I noticed that knowledge changes the outlook and opinions. Moses changed his attitude after interacting with God. I am also dismayed at how quickly too many people forget the wonderful things God has done for them.
The bonus features on this DVD are commentary, newsreel, and trailers.
