Conceived as mini-series this overlong picture has a valuable attributes, it was rather accurate according the old testament and was shot on location, however when I saw lavish The Ten Commandments of 1955 then there isn't any kind of collating such large gap of strength, thus unbeatable, whatever was the aspect, it's in another pattern.
Moses is plain and cheap as is easily be seen naturally along the picture, gross sets, poorest garments, scarce props, also the special effects done by the master Mario Bava is amiss, due the low budge and so on, in other hand a great foreigner supporting casting, Burt Lancaster portrays a great Moses, in historical background is untouchable and this way we shall be evaluate the movie itself and behold in this point of view.
Measure the great efforts to shot on location on a dry land with inappropriate sternly weather conditions at desert, sands, winds, in this specific point the assignment was fully accomplished, as a few numbers of votes this one is still unknown for the majority of IMDB's users, I saw it for the first time in early 1992 and now on DVD without any restoration, maybe never will be, sadly!!!
Resume:
First watch: 1992 / How many: 3 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 6.5.
