this movie could have have a lot of potential . certainly with today technology and one would expect real special effect . but movie be not make with special effect alone and of course acting be need . this film lack both . first and let me say to those who be upset with this not follow the bible represent why can not a movie take artistic license . if you want to know about the story of moses and read the bible . i have see very few movie that follow a true story fact by fact . look at of movie from it artistic quailities . in view this movie and you will inevitably compare it to the 1956 version . it fail miserably in that . heston and brenner have presence . they become their role . you do not see this here . even if you do not compare and stand on it own and this movie to too rush . part where a scene should be develop and it do not . it become boring . my advice represent skip this and watch the other . as campy a the other be and it far and away the good movie .
