Exodus: Gods and Kings Reviews

Ridley Scott madness as usual. My problem isn't really with the 'realistic' yet 'cheesy' story. Entertainment wise it's fine. It's built for the average American audience member. So don't expect Nolan level writing. My problem is with the casting. They do as much as they can and it works, if it was anything but this story. The acting ends up looking porcelain, with the on-off dialogue. The vfx clenches your cheeks, as with the sfx and score. Most of it is forgettable, and lost in my mind. I probably won't watch it again, but I had to for the Scott Free extravagance.

When this came out I thought it was a shitty 300 rip off. Didn’t realize it is literally the story of Moses but in a high budget action movie. Kinda 🔥 ​​​​​​​​​

It’s very confusing. Either do it exactly how the Bible says or not at all. 3/10

An epic…..snooze.

i Will forget a Muslim perspective and consider it a normal movie, the setting was wonderful and the casting and everything.

Sets a good tone from the start

Feels like this didn’t live up to what Ridley Scott is capable of. First half pacing was unbearable. The presentation of the plagues was cool, but that’s about it…

liked it enough, it’s not bad right? 6.3/10

NG

9/10 Enjoyed how they rationalised using “Concussion = Vision”/“Poisoning the Water = Plague”/“Metro = Tsunami”, although did not explain first born deaths?, A great film from visionary director Scot (loved the end dedication to brother Tony). Recommend.

A grand, visually breathtaking epic that mostly delivers. The scale, performances, and atmosphere draw you in, even if the story stumbles at times. It may not reach emotional greatness, but its ambition and craftsmanship make it a powerful, memorable watch.

Pretty meh movie but watchable.

ok

Loved this movie 🔥 wish they made more like this following biblical stories

Give this film 4.9/10 ⭐️

It’s was actually pretty good in the beginning. Love Ridley Scott’s work. I didn’t mind the creative liberties for real. But going towards the end it just was a bit much.

fande den Film eigentlich ziemlich gut.

have a word please. this was terrible.

Good movie !

Watched because I thought it was Gods of Egypt. This was rough story, dialogue, and pacing. The visuals, concept, and cast far outweigh this lackluster religious retelling.

didn’t immerse me or make me care. Low key felt like they gave up/ Ridley was contracted by big TV to make
