First time watching The Prince Of Egypt movie reaction

If you are not religious, this is one of the greatest animated films ever made... if you ARE religious? Its one of the greatest animated films ever made.. AND It will bring you to tears and it will do so, every single time.

Fun fact, the actress who voiced Moses' mother, Ofra Haza, sang the opening song not only for the English dub, but 17 others as well.

Fun fact: it took two years for the animators to make the splitting of the sea scene alone, it just shows how much work and dedication Dreamworks put into this film😊

9:00 In the bible, the sister followed the basket, went up to the Egyptian princess, and offered her mom to serve as the wet nurse for the baby. That's how Moses knew of his heritage. In the movie, you can actually hear grown up Moses whistling the lullaby tune before this interaction. We'll call it divine intervention for that memory to be preserved here.

I think people understimate kids' resilience. I was born in 1993, and had this movie on VHS back when it came out. And never did I feel shocked or traumatised.

In an early scene, you see Moses playing some pipes while Ramses complained about getting in trouble. The tune Moses is playing is the mother's lullabye, so when Mirriam sings, he knows there's a connection.

I can say as a 10 year old boy watching this film in theaters, Look At Your Life Through Heaven's Eyes was the most impactful message to me and it has shaped my life ever since.

No waaaaaaay Prince of Egypt 🤣 this soundtrack SLAPS

Having Val Kilmer voice Moses and God is nothing short of amazing, given how Val has lost his voice to his illness now. His voice is already immortalized in this animation. ❤

when they are singing “playing with the big boys”, did you see Moses’ snake consume the other snakes in the shadows?

If animators working on Prince of Egypt misbehaved, they were sent to work on Shrek as punishment. They called it "getting Shreked"

The Oak with his Gryffindor scarf not recognizing the voice of Voldemort😅

before he heard Miriam sing the lullaby when he’s walking among the sculptures you can hear him whistling the same melody

The only movie ever made which is officially accepted by all three Abrahamic religions: Christianity, Islam and Judaism. Because it’s respectful.

You might have heard the “miracle” song because Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey sang it together and it was played constantly after this movie came out

I hope I wasn't the only one who loved singing "Let My People Go" whenever there was thunder and lightning outside?

They changed a few things for the movie, but the creators met with Islamic, Jewish, and Christian religious leaders to get their takes before finalizing anything. The two big ones are the fact that Moses has a stutter so Aaron had to speak for him, and Ramses would have been Moses's uncle rather than his brother because Moses was actually adopted by the Pharoah's daughter. To make the story more relatable, though, especially for non-religious audiences, they decided to make the brother-to-brother conflict a central theme between Moses/Ramses AND Moses/Aaron. So I think the changed were still super respectful of the source material, whether we're talking about the Bible, the Quran, or the Torah.

Prince of Egypt is very much a contender for Best Animated Movie of all time

The music is pure magic, I KNEW you guys would love it!🫶

Making a brother-brother relationship falling apart basically the central conflict of the movie apart from the obvious was a stroke of genius.
