Dreamworks Pictures has taken the biblical story of Exodus, put it into cartoon form, and released it on the big screen as an epic animated feature. The Prince of Egypt tells the story of Moses releasing the Jews from Egyptian slavery under the hand of the evil pharaoh Rameses. Think of The Ten Commandments with songs and an all-star cast doing the voices. In the Charlton Heston role of Moses is Val Kilmer. Moses' brother Rameses, previously played by Yul Brynner, is now voiced by Ralph Fiennes. The story revolves around these two close brothers, Moses and Rameses. While Rameses is groomed to take over the land, his beloved brother Moses is a carefree prankster, until he learns the true secret of his past. His secret, of course, is that he is really a Jew and as a child was floated down the river to escape mass genocide. The pharaoh Seti (Patrick Stewart) raised Moses as his son. Upon learning the truth of his past from a burning bush, Moses returns to Egypt with God on his side and demands that the pharaoh (now his brother Rameses) must "Let my people go." With songs written by Oscar-winner Stephen Schwartz and sung by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, The Prince of Egypt covers all the classic story points of the story of Moses, including the ten plagues and the parting of the Red Sea.

But even now as an adult I still find this movie a very enjoyable experience. The story is told beautifully with a style and flavor that is unique to DreamWorks animation. Definitely worth seeing.

This is one the best adaptations of the Bible to the screen I've ever seen and yes, I know it's animated, but don't let it stop you. The parting of the Red Sea still takes my breath away. Fantastic.

I fell in love with this movie as a small child and even now this movie still is ranked No.1 on my list of favorite movies. I also recommend Dreamworks Joseph King of Dreams both are awesome and teach powerful messages.
