      If you can get past the melodrama and the length of the movie, its worth experiencing this elaborate retelling of a great story. ( Read More )
    • Variety Staff

      DeMille remains conventional with the motion picture as an art form. The eyes of the onlooker are filled with spectacle. Emotional tug is sometimes lacking. ( Read More )
    • Stephen Garrett

      Its the gigantic vulgarity, the obsessive righteousness of the director himself, which keeps the show on the road and suffuses the movie with its daft power. ( Read More )
    • James Powers

      There is no other picture like it. There will be none. If it could be summed up in a word, the word would be sublime. And the man responsible for that, when all is said and done is Cecil B. DeMille. ( Read More )
    • Steven D. Greydanus

      Still, for fans of silent film the spectacle of the brief Moses story remains a must see. ( Read More )
