So what I've heard about this movie is that DreamWorks wanted to be taken seriously as a new animation studio, so they just went all out on the best voice cast, the best animation, the best music, everything. And if that's true, it totally worked for me because it's still my favorite DW film.

Whether viewers are religious or not, TPoE is just a well-told, beautifully-crafted story. The way they humanize the characters make them feel human and relatable.

Dreamworks never really intended this to be a “kids film.” They were set on starting a whole new branch of movies tackling historical stories from different cultures, with a mature tone. But the success of Shrek led to them scrapping all of those plans, and went all in on 3D animation. Ironically, this movie production is responsible for the success of Shrek. Anyone who didn’t follow directions or misbehaved on the production team was essentially punished by making them work on Shrek. So they filled the movie with crass humor and hidden jokes as a middle finger to the studio. That led to Shrek being infinitely more popular.

This movie does two things that make the message more impactful: 1) Moses initially doesn’t want to accept the call; he loves his home/family, and 2) Ramses loves Moses back; he views him like a brother and his best friend, and when he comes back he’s happy to see him. Other versions don’t show this conflict, but it shows that making change is often very hard. It’s less about how “religion is good and easy” and more shows a more nuanced perspective on how devastating and overtaking it can be.

I just thought that when Moses discovered what his background was, he found empathy and understanding towards others who were suffering. He didn't live as a slave, he was born from a slave mother. Even before discovering his background, he did help the girl escape by distracting the guard. He just lived very sheltered life and never walk out of the world of the privileged. Thats what I took away from the film back when I saw it in 2nd grade in an Anglican private school.

I'm 42 years of age and 25 years on since seeing this in the cinema, this is still up there as one of the best animated films ever made in my opinion. It's a timeless masterpiece.

About Zipporah's family: if you watch "Joseph King of Dreams", which is a kind of prequel to this, you can see that Joseph eventually brings his father Jacob as well as his brothers and their wives over to Egypt. Those are the people whose descendants will become the slaves in this movie, including Moses and his siblings. But initially, they were living in tents in a desert-ish land too. Moses is a descendant of Abraham, his son Isaac, and Isaac's son Jacob (as said in the burning bush scene), Jacob who, as I just said, moved to Egypt along with all his sons and their families. Zipporah however, is also a descendant of Abraham, but not of Isaac and Jacob, since she is from a Midian family, who are descendants of Midian, another son of Abraham. So basically, Abraham's sons went their own way, separating the family into two branches, with some of Isaac's descendants ending up as slaves in Egypt because of Joseph convincing them to move there on one hand, and on the other hand, the Midian family who simply continued living in the desert instead of moving to Egypt, up until Moses found them. Same family tree, different branches. Zipporah's family didn't escape from Egypt because they were never in Egypt in the first place. So yeah, not sure what that makes them, just Hebrews I guess?

Eventually Moses has had enough, seeing all the suffering, he begs God not make him deliver the last warning. God said the final plague would be of Rameses’ own mouth.. ‘I will finish what my father started, and kill every first born Hebrew.” Moses knew Rameses’ own words had doomed his own son, and could not stop it.

I don't think all animated movies are aimed only for kids. With that said, I remember watching this movie with my older cousins who were teens and we all loved it. DreamWorks has released some of the best movies ever, including Prince of Egypt, Joseph King of Dreams, and even some movies that were not religious, like spirit and the road to El Dorado. These are all movies that teach us the values of humanity, empathy, freedom and many many many others. It's just beautiful to watch.

If you're not religious, kid or adult, the takeaway is that the movie is a masterpiece with wonderful visuals, good written characters, even the villain, and of course the songs.

But this animated film showed so much complexity to characters and their relationship. I actually felt so sad for both of them. And the animation? Perfection! Don't even get me started on the music!

There's barely anything historically accurate about this films as it's based on a fictional story.

As a religious Jew, this is a weird movie for me. It is a fantastic movie but they did took quite a lot of liberties adapting the story. But to some of your comments, it is in the original story that Pharaoh was indeed the first born but God skipped him so he will see the result, and also survived the drowning in the sea (again, to see the result). I hope you did finish reading about Tziporah, just in case, they weren't enslaved jews, they lived in a different country, she stayed there with the kids while Moses freed the Jews and afterwards she joined him in the desert on their way to the promised land. "Shemot" is the name of the second book of the Torah, it means "names" - since the beginning of the book is "And these are the names of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt" (roughly translated).

Hand drawn art style during a time were CGI was new and hot, the score and soundtrack, the atmosphere, voice acting (portrayed well into the characters we see)....it all works and flows. I did NOT expect a reaction to this film, but I'm so glad you two did!

His review has some very painful jokes, but if you can get past that, it’s a great critique of the film.

Hands down the most underrated film in animated history.

Hans Zimmer is the master mind behind this amazing soundtrack

I'm a Catholic with Jewish ancestry, so I've got both your backs 🙌😂 I grew up with this movie, always watched it during Passover, and still to this day think it's the best movie ever made. A literal masterpiece with the storytelling, music, and the animation! You don't get movies like this anymore. The part where you said you never thought about how the plagues would hurt Moses' heart, too? That's what I love the most about this movie. It gives character to the characters. It shows that for a very long time, Moses and Rameses were brothers and had a brotherly relationship. It shows how Moses must have felt having to be God's hands when it came to all of the horrible things God sent down as judgement on the Egyptians. How betrayed Rameses must have felt when Moses came back only to tell him to set the Jewish People free. It goes deep.

Super happy you guys are watching it; it's Dreamworks' best film by a mile, and not only one of the best animated films of all time, but in my opinion deserves to be up there as one of the best films in general. Animation is stellar, music is top notch, characters are amazing; and you don't have to be religious to appreciate it all :)

This is the most relevant comment to my thoughts about this movie too. I first watched it a couple years ago in school and I instantly fell in love with the whole movie. The prince of Egypt is actually my favourite movie and not just from DreamWorks definitely 😁

I'm not very religious, but this movie holds a special place in my heart. The music, the cinematography, the voice acting, etc. It was truly a masterpiece 👏🏻😁

30:48 a great bit of attention to detail by the animation team here. Since moses is protected by God the water where he is standing is still clear water when the rest of the river is blood

Lol, The statues nose falling is actually a reference to the famous one without a nose.

The shot in which Rameses looks at the ring and laments the loss of his brother (which was not featured in this video) is one of the most powerful bits of animation ever created. It conveys the emotion as well as live action footage does.

You literally surprise me with all of my favourite movies that I would never think would be next on your list. Such a delight.

One of my favorite DreamWorks films! Really love the music! Especially during the last scene with Moses walking back down the mountain with the Ten Commandments.

YESSSSSS YESSSSSS!!! Y’ALL ARE MAKING NON-STOP AMAZING MOVIE CHOICES!! 😭😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️ This movie made me cry many times and feel powerful and I’ll never stop singing their tracks 😆 PRAISE HANS ZIMMER AND STEPHEN SCHWARTZ!!! Dreamworks is literally the pinnacle of animation 😩 The Plagues is an iconic song. And Playing with the Big Boys, When You Believe, and All I Ever Wanted 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Moses’ mom the singer, she sang in multiple languages and as a kid I thought we had a singer just as talented as the og, not so. She just was built different.

Watched this movie a ton growing up - Loved it! I'm not religious anymore, but I still love it. It's a great intro to the Moses story, particularly for kids. It seemed like Roxy was struggling with what kids should take away from it, but seeing it as a kid originally, it was super clear - aside from the obvious "don't enslave people" it was about the power and importance of your faith, even through the hardest of times. That the point of the whole situation - the slaves endured unspeakable horrors for a long time but never stopped believing, and ultimately they were rewarded. It's an allegory for life, really. Plus, fantastic animation and voice acting! My brothers and I are grown men, but we'll still randomly bust out a song from this every so often, lol.

Except that Exodus provides Judaism with explicit rules on how to get, keep and treat their slaves, so it wasn't anti-slavery in the slightest.

She’s watching in bad faith. She immediately complains that the movie hasn’t explained its entire plot within the first musical number, she has no grasp on peoples historic attitudes on slavery, makes the worst jokes at the worst time. You make fun of the movie showing the love interest as a slave girl getting treated poorly (don’t show the mothers reaction) but then you’re on Moses side when she doesn’t want to bone him immediately, like what?? Neither of them (but her especially) have the right religious or artistic knowledge to say anything worth while about this movie. They can’t comment on the changes between the original biblical story and this one, they can’t comment on the music (vocals or soundtrack) can’t comment on the actual animation techniques that are going on and can’t be at least smart enough to just appreciate what’s been crafted for their enjoyment. I came to see one of my favorite movies appreciated and instead got this mess disappointing. People spent years pouring love into this film and all you have to say is “the bush isn’t bushy enough”

As a Christian, just wanted to thank you guys for reacting to this! God bless you.

3:22 Animation doesn't mean for kids. Animation can be enjoyed by anyone. The story is what it is. And to dull down the realities of what was faced would be disrespectful and disingenuous to the source material.

I just don't understand why make so much fun with the movie

I still have the VHS of this movie!! What a throwback! Glad you’re reacting to this masterpiece!

I would also say this film is not just for children, but the whole family. This film is animated, and really utilizes the medium to bring out visuals and emotions that aren’t the same in live action. I feel like just because something is animated we often think of it as being just for children, but I come back to this film a lot. It’s one of the most beautiful made animated works I’d ever seen. I still remember how big it felt in the theater. Gosh, way back in the day.

Her negative comments about the commitment not being in the movie

I’m personally a Dreamworks person over Disney and much as I love a lot of Dreamworks films, none have gone as hard as this honest masterpiece. I don’t know why Dreamworks haven’t gambled on more musicals because fuck the music is incredible here both the numbers and the breathtakingly beautiful score. So happy y’all reacted to this! Please react to more Dreamworks films!

As a kid who knew nothing of Biblical stories and watched this a lot as a child, I can say that I felt a lot of emotions when I would see it. I felt sad that Moses and his brother weren't able to remain close due to differences, joy that Moses and his people were able to escape, and overall awe and fear at what God did to free the people. The scene when the light goes through the homes and takes the first borns was always so powerful and scary to me even if I didn't fully understand the meaning and why it was happening.

Just because it's animation doesn't mean it's for kids.

I didn’t think you needed a lot of knowledge to watch animated films but some of her comments… thinking better of that now

I saw someone comment that they’re glad for her religious view on this film, but all I got was an unnecessary misunderstanding of the film

It wasn’t aimed just for kids its a family movie so if kids ask questions thy ask there parents whats going on and why if they know the story

They weren’t ready. Why did they even watch it?

Just to clarify, this is the story of Passover, so they totally did get to Passover. Passover refers to when the angel of death "passed over" the doors of the Israelites (who had the blood on the doorposts) and spared their firstborns.

I meant the celebration of Passover, and Elijah and the story of the unleavened bread, and the specifics and all that jazz. But absolutely yes the story of Passover with the plagues is told. One of my favorite holidays :)

I would hope that they had taken this movie more seriously instead of cracking jokes every two seconds

The reason why Rameses went after Moses at the end was because how the plagues slaughtered their children so he was trying to avenge them

Why the mockery it's not necessary

Um...the Passover was in the movie. It was a BIG part of the movie. The holiday is to celebrate when the Angel of Death passed over their homes and didn't kill their firstborns.

As an autistic person (i think it's a symptom idk) the opening number has been in my brain and on my mind since I was a kid, since I first watched the movie. So much emotion and sung so beautifully and powerfully. It haunts me in my sleep and I will randomly remember the melody and the pain it conveys in this story. Not at all religious but I'm damned if that song doesn't hit hard.

Hell yes I grew up watching this movie, didn't know it was religious back then but I love it and the music

Whether you're religious or not, the Prince of Egypt is a masterpiece of animation and one of the most difficult things with watching a review by people who aren't religious is sitting through the moments that are meant to be serious in the film itself, and listening to jokes spoken over it. Like I don't know if it's just a nervous reaction of having to make light of any given situation even when something isn't meant to be funny, but it is grating. You don't have to be of any religion to respect the material present before you and hearing the constant mocking was a real buzz kill when not commenting on the story, writing, or visuals and instead just turning everything into a joke. But I'm sure I'd be in the minority viewpoint in that regard. Also, who said they made this to be a family film. That's a very American way to think about animation and it's sad, that anything animated must automatically be considered made for children.

Exodus 1 Pharaoh commanded all his people to throw into the Nile every ⌞Hebrew⌟ boy that was born, but to let every girl live. That’s why the animation shows babies who are visible male.

theres so many lessons you can take from this. like its not too late to do the right thing . The smallest rock plays an important role in holding the mountain up.. its really the humble way of looking at life....

39:08. Imagine how cool it would be to see this happen in real life & not just in an animated movie.
