These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.
YMMV: The Prince of Egypt
Alternate Character Interpretation: From the source. Ramses in Ten Commandments is more villainous and doesn't care for Moses. In this version, Ramses is raised as being Moses's brother, and acts much more... brotherly to Moses, even hugging him after he went missing.
Crowning Music of Awesome: As a musical, the film contains many songs of both emotional and artistic resonance, and has earned several awards for its soundtrack. Special mention goes to Ofra Haza who voiced Yocheved, Moses's mother, and sang the opening song ("Deliver Us") in seventeen different languages for the various dubs of the film, including her native Hebrew,
For some context, the song sung in Hebrew by a children's choir as the Hebrews left Egypt is a translation of Miriam's song from the Bible:
''I will sing to the LORD, for He has triumphed gloriously,
Who is like you, Oh LORD, among the gods?
Who is like you, glorious in holiness?
You in your mercy have led forth the people whom you have redeemed
I will sing! I will sing! I will sing!''//
"The Plagues" deserves mention for combining the deeply personal rift between Moses and Ramases with the wrath of God unleashed upon Egypt.
YMMV about whether "When You Believe" misses the whole point...namely there will be miracles even if you don't believe, and sometimes specifically because you don't.
Moral Event Horizon: Seti crosses this when he tries to rationalize slaughtering all the Hebrew babies, starting off with the line, "Oh, my son, they were only slaves." It's this that causes Moses (and the audience) to lose any possible respect for him.
Visual Effects of Awesome: The Pillar of Fire and the parting of the Red Sea easily rival anything seen in live action films and God, in the form of the Burning Bush, still looks amazing.
