When Frank Scott died, Ridley made it through the pain of losing a brother and delivered a masterpiece: Blade Runner. When his other brother, Tony, died, he gave us... this: A biblical epic which, true to the form of biblical epics, is about as riveting as a head of cabbage placed on top of a slightly larger head of cabbage (will it fall off? won't it? who gives a fuck- it's cabbage!). I know Tony Scott wasn't the greatest of directors, but surely he deserved a better epitaph than this.

Pouty sexually ambiguous bronze skinned Pharaoh Ramses is jealous of adopted bro. He goes on a tirade and becomes a petty tyrant. Christian Bale who is combat moses is cast out and goes on a spiritual training montage with Boy God the burning bush to save the Chosen Ones. He comes back as the warrior poet and God unleashes plagues and stuff to punish random egyptians. Water is parted and a big CGI centerpiece battle happens. The end.

God is a weird young child fucking with Christian Bale. Moses is an extremely white British man surrounded by a cast of confusingly diverse ethnicities and nationalities. Miracles are natural events that happen at coincidentally helpful times. Exodus: Gods and Kings is another mediocre outing from sometimes brilliant director Ridley Scott. Nothing is as impressive as it is should be (except perhaps Christian Bale, who delivers another impressive performance even as a slightly distracting Moses).

Exodus: Gods and Kings, with its cast and filmmakers, should have been better. It might turn out like Kingdom of Heaven, where a director's cut will add 40 more minutes and yet somehow fix all of its issues, although I'm not holding my breath. More story isn't Exodus' problem; it's the complete lack of anything interesting or inspirational that does that. It exists so Ridley Scott can do CGI-heavy scenes from his favorite parts of the story.

I cannot get away from the idea that Ridley, still appropriately reeling from Tony's unfortunate death, approached a universal Biblical blockbuster narrative as a personal confrontation with faith, brotherhood and mortality. What comes out of the struggle is a very desperate, vicious agnostic realism that tries despairingly to justify its historical fantasy for some depth, but can't bring itself to embrace it. To quote the Preacher, All is vanity, and chasing after the wind.

You wait for the one-liner that has survived for thousands of years, "LET MY PEOPLE GO" ... and it never comes. You wait for Moses to part the red sea... and he never does. You wait for 2.5 hours for something interesting to happen... and the film ends with a whimper. So many writing problems in this picture I don't even know where to begin. Bonus points for Ben Kingsley's performance; he should have been cast as Moses instead of Christian Bale.

Decent set pieces but goddamn was this ever a bland movie. It's a very "hollywoody" version of the Moses story that, naturally, paints the Egyptians and Ramses himself in a negative light. I would be fine with this if ANY of the characters or ANYTHING in the story kept my interest. My dad literally fell asleep while watching this.

We keep waiting for the next epic grandiose picture to come from the hands of Scott, but this is definitely not it. Scott somehow manages to make the amazing story about Moses, wildly forgettable. All those trials, all that misery and death, and yet I cared for none of them, and last but not least, the depiction of God as a child made Him seem inferior instead of superior. - Bad

With the length of the film, you would think they would develop the characters more. I never got the sense of the bond that Moses and Ramses should share. Aaron Paul is wasted as is Sigourney Weaver. A few cool action scenes (big giant waves) and I did like how they slightly changed the plagues up (crocodiles making the sea turn red). Bale and Edgerton were solid. God is not a child because he doesn't exist.

I don't understand why Ridley Scott doesn't stick to historical accuracy. If he had done so the film might have been a succes. Despite my initial skepticism due to the abundance of negative reviews, I maintained a sense of excitement as I eagerly awaited the opportunity to immerse myself in the wonders of ancient Egypt. To my pleasant surprise, the cinematography and scenery were absolutely fantastic.

how did they even f up the red sea parting scene? they made it look like the tide had just naturally gone out a bit. There was no sense that anything supernatural had taken place at all, and no sense that Moses was responsible in any way. Yet then, suddenly, they do do the whole 'big wave' scene once Ramses turns up to get wiped out. Just an utter moronic mess.

I think Ridley Scott really has developed a distinctive style in his later work. His movies have gotten cold, clean and utterly boring. What's more important though is that he thinks he can tackle the most meaningful stories and has something profound to say. "Exodus" is over two hours long but it doesn't bring anything interesting to the table, except the most generic depiction of the plagues ever.

One of the most unnecessary films of all time. It doesn't ever outdo "Ten Commandments" or "Prince of Egypt" in any way, has inconsistent characterizations and performances, and yeah the big European-sculpted elephant in the room is ultimately very distracting and Scott's public dismissal of the issue is very upsetting. A long, dreary, disappointment.

Exodus: Gods and Kings is poorly titled to be sure. It also presents as a hollow experience for the most part. Trading real emotional weight for power and spiritual argument. However Ridley Scott shows off his skills as a visualist and some of the ideas (the child messenger) are provocative and well executed.

The same old story, ofcourse. Albeit more violent and doubtful. There's less glorification here and I like that. To me the thing that stood out the most is that God kills so many, eventhough they do not adhere to His faith. And so much pain is being inflicted. It scares me to know there are people in real life who take the wrong lessons from that. So no, I can not rate Exodus high. 23/100.

Have to say we weren't anywhere near sober when watching this but we completely failed to take any of it it seriously. Christian Bale seems to undergo a Terminator Salvation style freakout for the entire duration of the movie and the visual attempt for a painterly style just looks weird and inappropriately post 300. The terrible cheesy script didn't help either. Just came out as comical from start to finish. That's a long time window btw and I did doze off somewhere around the 8th hour of it.

Bad writing, wrong casting choices and just too generic and clichéd. After a tiresome first part it gets a bit more interesting, we meet 'God' and the plagues I thought were interesting to watch. It gets more entertaining from here on but still not 'good'. Ending is really lame and abrupt. Not a total waste of time, it has a few redeeming qualities, but certainly not good and I wouldn't generally recommend it.

The story of Moses in "Exodus: Gods and Kings". Christian Bale as Moses and Joel Edgerton as Ramses, manages the tricky proposition of keeping God in the loop while finding logical explanations of events that have been taken, for some time now, as signs of divine intervention. Yet it fails to find the story's beating heart. For all the film's impact is best expressed by frequent aerial shots that are visually impressive and emotionally remote.

Bale effectively conveys the despair and confusion appropriate to his character, particularly in a moment during the third act that could have easily been cut due to studio mandated time constraints -- but thankfully, it wasn't cut. Moses is on his knees, lost in the mountains, praying desperately to his God. It's probably the lone instance of true conviction of feeling in a movie that exists mostly to show off it's expertly crafted set-pieces. The 10 Plagues sequence was amazing though.

I won't lead a mass exodus of people toward this movie but it was pretty good. I expected this to be a lot worse after seeing Noah, but I was pleasantly surprised. The costumes and sets were amazing and some of the acting was quite good. I felt it was kind of strange to see Christian Bale as Moses and Joel Edgerton as Pharaoh Ramses. I was even more shocked to see Sigourney Weaver as an Egyptian (couldn't see that coming in her career)...

Being in a Game of Thrones-y mood carried me 4 half hour or so, allowing me 2 be drawn in by the subtle friction between the "brothers" & appreciate the CGI landscapes , but the more familiar the narrative became (which to a former Catholic school kid is pretty d-mn familiar), I began to lose interest. The choice to make God into a kid who Moses argues with isn't doing believers any favors either as it just highlights the fact that popular concepts of God make little to no sense.

Meh. The highlight for me was the plague sequence, and that simply because the film manages a pulse at that point. Overall, I was looking for heart and character and something recognizably human (or divine). Instead, the film delivers lots of (poor) CGI, an inert romance, and a capricious (in the 'petulant 6-year old' sense of the term) God that I cannot imagine anyone wanting to follow.

I thought it was... okay. Improvements could have been made in the dialogue and character department, but I didn't think it was too bad, overall. The big visual effects sequences, which were obviously pretty much the only reason Ridley Scott did this, were quite good. And the production design and costumes and all that were pretty decent. However, it was mostly just overly serious and boring. Noah (2014) took risks and is far, far better for it.

Exodus: Gods & Kings is a mediocre contribution from Ridley Scott. Compared alongside the filmmakers previous masterpieces and flops, this latest effort definitely falls somewhere in between. There are flaws, the casting being the most notably peculiar problem with this film. I enjoyed Christian Bale but otherwise there really are some odd choices. There are major pacing issues too. Exodus is visually impressive with moments of epic spectacle, but as an experience I struggled to invest myself.

Ridley Scott - if you're going to make a biblical epic about Moses and Ramses - either make it honorably faithful or wildly controversial, but you can't have both. Instead you have sinned gravely by making this earth-shattering story a monotonously dull slog. It wasn't about God. It wasn't about Moses. It wasn't about brothers at war. It wasn't really about anything. Yet the movie's amazing production values can't be overlooked.

But much better than Ridley's last two movies. I almost lost hope after The Counselor, but it's really good to see he can make something decent out of any period piece material. Even though it looks way less cinematic than anything he's shot on film. Joel Edgerton was really good.

I may not be the biggest fan of religious art, but I do appreciate great craftsmanship. This goes for a Caravaggio painting from the 16th century or for Ridley Scott, when he gets commissioned an old testament piece by Hollywood patrons. The man knows how to put together a historical epic, even if he fails to inject the fable with that much new or relevant, try as he might.

Eh, whatever. Sir Ridley's sense of humor is way more irreverent than Aronofsky's - indeed, he replaces the overly reverent, drippy Gnosticism of Noah with gags, essentially. A lot of people take this as proof that he's given up, but I prefer the cruel, demented jokey-ness. Highlights include Joel Edgerton flopping around a dead baby muppet, wearing mascara and talking to himself. YHWH himself makes an appearance as a petulant, bullying little kid, kind of a mini-football hooligan.

My favorite Scott has always been Tony and I must say I was moved when his name appeared on screen when it ended. Exodus is obviously being compared to Noah just because the Biblical source, but it's surprisingly superior. Not only Ridley is able to deliver some nicely crafted set-pieces -- the Plagues, the Red Sea walk --, but he directs interesting conflicts between man and God, whose existence is never taken for granted in the narrative. Bloated and conventional, but better than expected.

Not everything takes the first exit ramp off the scriptural account, though. And the resulting combination of fact and artistic license can create some pretty robust conversations about what the Bible really does say about Moses and his mission of liberation. It's an optimistic view that's bolstered by us seeing that the shed blood of the Passover lamb--a foreshadowing of Christ's awesome work on the cross so many centuries later--still protects the Israelites in this tale.

Exodus is an underwhelming experience. As others have mentioned, I also have a deja vu of the KoH theatrical version. Exodus feels very choppy with pacing on max setting, not making a whole lot of sense. The script feels very rough, the acting is okay and direction isn't what it used to be, mr. Scott. This could have been grand, alas it isn't so. Edgerton is, dare I say it, miscast and Weaver totally superfluous. Hopefully there will be a vastly superior DC in the future, although I doubt it.

I kind of enjoyed it in its generic epicness, while also finding a lot of it, well, generic, and awkwardly and obviously cut down in editing at points. It's not a spot on the brilliant (and much more thoughtful concerning religion) Kingdom of Heaven director's cut. Also, if there actually were an almighty God, I think the obtuse, overreacting, smiting-his-enemies-at-the-expense-of-thousands-of-innocent-casualties childish asshole here is probably pretty much what He would be like.

A more than worthy adaptation of Jeffrey Geoghegan and Michael Homan's bestseller 'The Bible For Dummies'.

* I was so surprised when I saw Ridley Scott's name at the end of this movie.. Might be his worst.. Now I understand how the cast got involved in this though. Had decent acting but still was a bore of a movie. And some very unnecessary zooming.. I could not understand where the movie held itself regarding religion, god seemed like a little child (not just visually), Moses did not seem a believer they tried to explain everything scientifically.. Then I learned Scott is an agnostic..

Not unlike Aronofsky's Noah, Exodus makes out its hero, Moses, to be a conflicted and confused character whose faith in God seems more like a stumbling block than a redeeming quality. Ultimately where this film succeeds, such as its brilliant and epic scenery, makes it an entertaining film to behold, but its plot is so flat and it lacks the depth and heart of the story, that this film ultimately falls as another unfortunate Biblical epic.

The movie is far from perfect (it can't even see perfect), but at the same time it's so inoffensive that there's not much to take issue with. Vengeful "Old Testament" God is best God. I'd have liked to have seen more Ben Kingsley. I'd have liked to have been treated to a better script. I'd have liked to not have felt like there was a lot left on the cutting room floor, resulting in a sometimes-poor narrative flow. Bale is good enough to carry it, and the story and visuals are fine. It's okay.

Solid. But The Prince of Egypt told the whole thing better - and shorter.

This movie is weak in almost every aspect of movie making, especially for a Hollywood blockbuster. The worst was feeling uncomfortable with all the anachronisms and trying to work the square overwrought biblical narrative into the round scientific hole. Even the CGI is obvious through most of the film. This looks to be Scott's attempt to redeem his career after his failed masterpiece, "The Counselor", but he should have stood pat.

I have the exact same sour taste - as when I went to see Kingdom of Heaven back in 2005. At an almost exact length as KOH theatrical cut. Something is definitely missing. The script is lacking at some points throughout the pic. S.Weaver has two lines & B.Kingsley some more... what a waste of two brilliant actors. However, the production value is top notch. Another fantastic 3D presentation with epic believable CGI. 20th FOX should already consider releasing a expanded cut as soon as possible!!!
