An all-star cast--including Val Kilmer, Ralph Fiennes, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Sandra Bulock--leads this full-length, animated musical version of the story of Moses. After being raised as the son of a Pharaoh, Moses learns that he is a Hebrew and must accept his destiny as the leader of his people. Moses' brother Rameses refuses to let the Hebrews go, and brings down the wrath of God upon Egypt. This triumph of animated storytelling and colorful design won the Academy Award for Best Song with "When You Believe." [More]

Reviews for The Prince of Egypt
Sometimes out-DeMilles DeMille’s 1956 live-action epic, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS!
The first time an exciting, full-length animation utilizing both computer techniques and traditional procedures gloriously transcends the boundary between youthful fare and adult entertainment.
Rather than Jerry Falwell, I'd have had the production vetted by Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks.
This movie is worth a trip to the local multiplex by viewers of all ages, races, and religious persuasions.
one of the year's most distinctive, lovingly made movies, a picture that turns a familiar story into something suprisingly exciting, moving and -- yes -- even funny. In a word, 'Prince' rules.
I wish DreamWorks had been more truly daring instead of merely competitive and worked a little longer at evolving a drawing style that departed more radically from the Disney house style than this film does.
Characters are extremely lifelike in appearance and movement, and some of the scenes are magnificently staged in composition and depth, including the well-known and beautifully executed parting of the Red Sea.
Disfrutable para los públicos de todas las edades, además de ser un buen motivo para creer nuevamente en los milagros
This musical retelling of the Biblical story of Moses features a first-rate voice-cast and state-of-the-art animation that's nothing short of miraculous.
Leaves you feeling like you've witnessed something that misses the mark.
