Worst Movie ever made ..  

Exodus. God and Kings 

( The best movie ever made was "The Ten Commandments" it is 

   spot on with the Bible also .. Charlton Heston, Yul Brynner .. ) 

This movie was a terrible depiction of the Exodus account. I find it interesting how Hollywood chooses biblical films and then removes from them all the things that make the story unique and fascinating. They botched the character of Moses and the the entire purposes of God in the film. To be honest if I had not been familiar with the Exodus story, this movie would have confused me to no end. It was void of all the substance that gave this story purpose and grandeur. Blasphemous, heretical and just down right poorly done.  

There seemed to be not only no regard to the original text, which is one thing, but also no real knowledge or understanding of it. 

The film's problems extend way beyond the outrageously whitewashed cast. Since it never commits completely to either notion about the reality of God (that he is real or just imagined by Moses), this retelling of Exodus exists without a thesis and therefore any real purpose. Although it's pretty obvious that large sections of the film seem to be missing, so conceivably there's a cut that makes more sense and actually deals with it's supporting characters.  

Such a huge budget, with such illustrious actors as Bale, Kingsley, Weaver and others... all to produce a very poor telling of an epic story. Apart from Moses and Pharaoh, it seems that all the other characters are dumb and silent, and it is a waste of good cast. Pharaoh himself seems rather childish and unintelligent, and that leaves Moses as the only character of any significance. It would seem that instead of re-telling his own version of the Exodus, Ridley Scott re-told his own version of the Prince of Egypt (a superb film, by the way). There seemed to be not only no regard to the original text, which is one thing, but also no real knowledge or understanding of it.  

Watch the Movie, "The Ten Commandments." A lot more accurate than 

this movie.
