DVD Review: The Prince of Egypt
Summary: 5 Stars
I owned The Prince of Egypt on VHS and it has been watched so much that the tape is warn. I needed a new copy and I was looking for a reasonable price. I found The prince of Egypt/Joseph - King of Dreams at a very good price. I paid the same price as the orginal VHS copy and recieved a much better deal. Thanks.

This was a great deal. If you are looking for a fun way to teach the bible to your children, this is it.DVD Review: Joseph King of Dreams
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is an outstanding combination of high quality artistry and exceptional content. I often feel forced by animated movies to choose between one or the other, yet this film for the whole family seems to have it all. The music is inspirational without the cheese of most Disney flicks. Although some creative license is taken while interpreting the meaning of the related Biblical scriptures, my kids "got it" and love to re-read these stories in the Bible as a result of having enjoyed the movie so much. I highly recommend this and "Prince of Egypt" for every child's video library!DVD Review: Well Done!
Summary: 4 Stars
Prince of Egypt is a very well done movie, sticking very closely to the original account, though where it does deviate, the original meaning/intent is still preserved. Moses, a Hebrew babe is set adrift in a basket in the Nile in order to save his life. Pharoah's wife (daughter in the original account)finds the child, takes him in to raise him. Moses grows up thinking he is Egyptian, only to one night find out he is Hebrew. From there his actions result in the death of an Egytian guard, causing him to flee into the wilderness afraid for his life. He sojourns with the Midianites and learns of God from them. The Lord God comes to speak to Moses from the burning bush and tells him to return to Egypt to deliver His people, the Hebrews. Moses doesn't want to go, but he obeys. Through his obedience, the Lord works out judgement on Pharoah for the treatment and continued captivity of His people. Eventually, after God strikes the firstborn of all of Egypt and institutes the Passover, Pharoah releases the Hebrews. Their mass exodus out of Eqypt and Pharoahs change of heart bring them to the Red Sea where the Lord provides yet another miracle for their escape. He parts the sea so that His people may pass on dry ground, and as Pharoah's arms pursues them across the sea, the Lord let's the water rush back into it's place and kills Pharoahs army, yet again giving the Hebrews cause to rejoice and believe once again on the One True God. The animation is good, as well as the music. This is a movie to watch with the whole family - a good example of human history, of rulers and nations and how God has preserved his people, even when they don't listen to Him.
Joseph King of Dreams is less well done than the Prince of Egypt, and though much liberty has been taken by 'fleshing out' the story from the original, I feel that overall the pupose of the story is preserved. Joseph, the second to youngest son of Jacob by his most loved wife, Rachel, is the favored son. The coat of many colors actually signifies that Joseph, not ... will inherit the double portion, which was completely counter to cultural traditions of the time. That Joseph had dreams that showed his brothers in subjection to him only angered the brothers more. They plotted to kill him, but ... convinced them to sell Joseph into slavery. Joseph prospered at whatever he did, though he did end up in prison, falsely accused. Even there he was given charge over the whole prison inner workings. From there is where he, with God's revelation to him, tells the baker and the chief cup-bearer the meanings of their dreams. It was from prison that Pharoah has him brought to himself to tell the meaning of his most disturbing dream. God reveals to Joseph the meaning, and Pharoah places Joseph second in command, answering only to Pharoah. Joseph prospers yet again, then he is faced with his brothers, and the hurt that they had caused him. He must choose to forgive them, but first he tests them. They pass the test and he reveals himself to them. Then he sends for the whole household (a very large group) and moves them to Egypt where he can help provide for them and so that he can see his Father again. This is another example of human history and God's intervention/plan to save his people. It teaches that though we may not see the reason for our present personal circumstances, the God has a plan, and if we are faithful, He will prosper us in the things that matter.
DVD Review: What a Deal!
Summary: 5 Stars
Most of you have seen the Prince of Egypt - a solidly good flick. Joseph is also based on the Torah story of Joseph, and does a decent job with the story of this great man.
Overall, I'd say "Joseph" is the less-catchy younger brother of "Prince of Egypt", but is really great.
And the price can't be beat!
