To prepare for his role as Moses, Christian Bale quickly surpassed Sunday school basics and delved into scripture and literary works. He read the first five books of the Bible, the Koran, as well as Louis Ginzberg's classic, "Legends of the Jews" and Jonathan Kirsch's "Moses, A Life." See more »
Christian bale has a reputation of doing variety of roles with sheer genius. But this one is a blunder. It starts of well, knotting your expectations higher, ultimately falling into a boring, clichéd drama. It could have been a watchable movie if the screenplay had been better but all you see is people mindlessly walking for 30 minutes being followed in the last few minutes.
Direction itself is poor so howsoever Moses has gulped down the character it goes in vain. It's a boring saga of two brothers turning into rivals. Other actors have done their part pretty well but the direction and the screenplay are the biggest loopholes. Christian bale fans will be highly disappointed
