I went to see the film on a date last week hehe
Really didn't care too much about the inaccuracies, hardly a truthful story to begin with so...
The visuals and the acting were really nice. I loved the dramatic effects of the tsunami towards the end, as well as the plagues. It was visually a very pretty film.
Can I just say though, what really wore me out was Moses' wardrobe, especially early on in the film. So this is a man who, supposedly, grew up with no idea that he wasn't ethnically Egyptian, yet right from the start he was dressed completely different to all of the "other" Egyptian characters. Why? He didn't know he was Hebrew to feel a need to make a statement about it. Also as well his "Hebrew" clothes he wore, especialle near the start, were giving me very much so medieval crusader Ts, rather than ancient Hebrew. It was very off.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
