Review:
After a long time a movie having a real story, drama and epic has been appear on screen but as expected from the history of the director the movie is more likely visual spectacle more than the real thing. For watching this movie you should have interest in mythological history like pharaoh, gods and kings the effects are breath taking as thanks to 3d and good picturing and mind-blowing sets but most of them are animated otherwise the movie would be a little bored. I found that there is unnecessary stretch in the movie story as two and half hour is more than enough for a present generation viewer. If we talk about role of Christian Bale he as usual put his full effort to make his character real and very much optimistic. The movie co actor the wife of moses (Christian Bale) looking stunning. This director fits all the co actor in their role perfectly. Cursus from Gods, plagues and various apart from all there is little bit of how Egypt had fall. This movie is for true fans Christian Bale and if you love his stunning acting.

Storyline-
The movie starts from the king(pharaoh) who has a son and a adopted by his courtier, and the second son named Moses(Christian Bale), a forecast has been announced in which forecaster says one who saves for the king in upcoming battle become the king of all. Battle happens and the Moses saves the son of the king, but this thing disturb the king sons Ramsey(Joel Edgerton). One day the king sends the moses to the valley of slaves where stones are being cutted down for the monuments and the temple of the king. There Moses found himself in the disturbing state as he know about himself of being a worker of god. When ramsay knew about the truth , he banishes out Moses out of the country in desert, after so many days he reach to a place presently called Israel facing several challenges but God have a mission to save isarialist from slavery, this makes him alive after some time he married a girl Zipporah(María Valverde). Till seven he ran his family but after one day God itself comes and told hi about his goal. He then again goes the Egypt and fight for the Rights of the slaves but due to the intentions of the king curses over he city being happend, at the end Ramsay( The king after his father death) freed 4000000 slaves but with wrong intention. Then the historic journey happens called the exodus

Why to watch
The move has the good storyline, great script and mind blowing animation in action scenes. Apart from that it contains the history which everyone should know.
