Exodus: Gods and Kings [2014] review
In a word: snoozefest. This movie had no heart. The characters were one dimensional. The plot was very matter of fact and treated as such. Christian Bale yells at a kid representing God or God's messenger or something, then eventually he kind of parts the sea, and then all of sudden he's as old as Bilbo Baggins and it's over. Oh, Aaron Paul is in it. Neat! His character feels no pain. Unfortunately I don't have that ability and suffered through this movie, hoping it would get better and never does. At one point, I was really hoping for the rock monsters from Aronofsky's Noah to show up and destroy Egypt as one of the plagues.
