god was pretty impressive |
So, I'm an atheist but I still figured that I should watch The Ten Commandments. The movie was kind of interesting at first because the story is familiar (I was brought up a Catholic), but after more than three hours my interest in the doings of these nutcases waned considerably. It's pretty mind boggling that such a big hullabaloo of a production was created all about a bunch of made up stories about "god." Everything about this movie was totally over the top from Charlton Hestons escalating facial hair to the crazy over the top score with the loudass horns.
It kind of annoyed me how they portrayed the Egyptians as bad and as atheists of sort (not even faithful to their own gods). Definitely fodder by Christians for Christians, and that's probably why this long, long movie is remembered so fondly. Although, I will say that uh they probably spent a lot of money on this, huh?
This would actually probably be a better movie:
