It's hard to rate a movie like this - is it a great movie? yes - have I had the desire to see it more than once? no

Every year I always try and catch this on TV, and then I try and guess at what time will Moses part the red sea (usually after 10 o'clock).

Ever so popular biblical story is quite long and a little overrated. Unless this totally satisfies all your religious dogma, it's kinda hokey!

A classic historical drama that is very well done. Once again Charlton Heston succeeds in a historic movie. This was very little in this move that didn't amaze me. Even the music is mesmerizing. I could watch this again and again and I intend to.

In my opinion, The Ten Commandments is the greatest and best-made of all films that take their subject matter from The Bible. For 1956, the parting of the Red Sea was a spectacle in itself. Things like this, the work with thousands of extras, and great performances by Heston, Robinson, and Brynner make this a yearly favorite around passover/easter. Plus, it seems as if The Prince of Egypt, while good entertainment in itself, drew heavily from The Ten Commandments for ideas and inspiration.

for those who don't thump Bibles it's still a provocative, sprawling story and extremely well crafted by DeMille

As I watched, it was hard for me to believe that they did this back in the 1950's. I figured it had to be at least 1960's or maybe even the 1970's, due to the special effects. Charleton Heston did a performance worthy of Moses! I love that image of him crawling on the desert ground, with such despair on the face. I was a little disappointed that the Red Sea scene did not look a little more realistic, but it was a benevolent effort, and it still is pretty impressive. I enjoyed the first half better than the 2nd. I thought they should have editted out about 1/2 hour to a whole hour. At nearly 3.7 hours long, it is tough to make it through! I love God and Jesus, though, and I can tell that His Hand was at work in this movie! www.outcrybookreview.com/meat.htm
