Hollywoods Year Of The Bible Continues.... Christians Say Exodus Preview Leaves Faith Elements Vague The buzz, hiss, and tsk-tsk among Christian circles over Darren Aronofsky’s Noah have only just hushed down. Now with the release of the trailer and a media preview of the next biblical epic, Exodus: Gods and Kings, the fire is slowly roaring back up again—though whether it will produce roars of applause or a cacophony of boos is still unclear. Given the controversy over Noah, probably both. Fox invited WORLD and some other media outlets to preview exclusive 3-D footage of the upcoming movie recently in Los Angeles. Both producer Jenno Topping and actor Christian Bale, who plays Moses, were present at the 20th Century Fox lot to introduce the film. The media presentation revealed only eight scenes, a total of about 37 minutes of the movie, which opens Dec. 12. While Heston’s Moses was dark, brooding, and earnest, from what I could detect from the snippets, Bale plays a Moses whose personality is brighter and richer in dimension. Ambiguous too is how Exodus will deal with the faith elements, other than doing yet another dramatization of human psychological issues. Judging from the few scenes in the trailer, Exodus does try to do a good job portraying Moses as a multi-dimensional, fascinating, complex character. The scenes of the plagues look very impressive. #entertainment #movies #Christianfilm #Exodus #GODSANDKINGS #RidleyScott #ChristianBale #JoelEdgerton #JohnTurturro #SigourneyWeaver #AaronPaul #BenMendelsohn #BenKingsley https://youtube/watch?v=N4iSzHXOUEE
