DVD Reviews of Exodus
DVD Review: Poor quality video transfer
Summary: 1 Stars
I was disappointed with the quality of the video transfer. I'm not sure if the images started to get better half-way into the film, or my eyes just adjusted to the pixel problems. My son watched the first 15 minutes then he couldn't take the poor quality of the video and he gave up.DVD Review: Birth of a Nation
Summary: 3 Stars
This film is based on an outstanding novel by Leon Uris in which Paul Newman frees, tranports, and meets all challanges to establish a new State. It is nearly impossible to view this film and not be moved by the trials and tribulations of the Jewish race to have a country of thier own notwithstanding the negative attitude of the rest of the world that such a state is impossible. Keep your chin up and cheer on the underdog ! You'll be mighty glad in the end.DVD Review: Awful by today's standards
Summary: 2 Stars
I just watched this film tonight on TCM. It is terrible. Cinematography mediocre, even Paul Newman's acting is as bad as I've ever seen, and Trumbo's script and dialogue may be worse (if possible) than Spartacus.
Now I now why the "new Hollywood" rennaisance took place. After watching this turkey, Hal Ashby, Bonnie & Clyde, and Chinatown look like works of genius.
Oh boy, time can be brutal, and in the case of "Exodus" - we may have to come up with a new word.
Totally over-rated - if you value your time (life is short)- go elsewhere.
DVD Review: Great movie on historic theme.
Summary: 5 Stars
One of Newman's best (of many). Breathtaking scenes and a full-blown cast of supporting actors. High marks for Eva Marie Saint. Excellent theme and story line. Marvelous support from Sal Mineo, Lee J. Cobb and David Opatoshu. DVD Review: great take on history
Summary: 5 Stars
Movie is long but it sure does give you a view of how poorly people were treated. It was great to see how their belief kept them strong
Description of Exodus
Inspired by Leon Uris' international bestseller, this "extraordinarily moving" (The New Republic) chronicle of the rebirth of a people and the establishment of a nation is the ultimate experience in human drama. Nominated* for three Academy Awards? and winner* for Best Score, Exodus is an "exciting, dramatic, scenic, panoramic and deeply moving" (New York Daily News) masterpiece. Ari Ben Canaan (Paul Newman), a commander of the Israeli underground, manages to lead 600 Jews from the detention camps of Cyprus onto a large freighter bound for Palestine. But British forces soon learn of his plan and insist that he turn back. Undaunted, Ari and his passengers refuse to give up, risking their lives for the greater cause of Israeli independence.Otto Preminger's 1960 adaptation of Leon Uris's novel is a sprawling 220-minute tale of the founding of modern Israel, starring Paul Newman as a Resistance leader. The film works best as an example of Preminger's estimable skill with all levels of drama and action, but as a reflection upon history it is compromised by stereotypes, unpersuasive relationships, and a certain moral ambivalence about issues related to the subject. There are good and exciting sequences, however, particularly one involving an effort to break through a British blockade and get to the homeland. --Tom Keogh
