Advantages: Exactly the same as the bible story. Disadvantages: Soundtrack - bad quality.
Again, this is a review of the film only - not the DVD.
This is another find from Oxfam's 3 for £1 selection. I bought this video by mistake, thinking it was The Prince of Egypt, which is a film I saw in primary school and loved! Nevertheless, I did like the film, despite it being the wrong one. Although it's a bible story, I still found it ok (if you don't know what I'm talking about, watch any other film of a bible story - they're all crap).
The story centres around Joseph, of the house of Jacob. He can tell the future through his dreams and can interpret the dreams of others. His brothers are jealous of him as their father pays special attention to him as he believes Joseph is a gift from God. Joseph's nine brothers decide they've had enough of him so sell him into slavery. I know, heartwarming stuff, isn't it. Anyway, after ...
Advantages: It's nice enough, technically brilliant... Disadvantages: ... forgettable songs, weakish storyline, just overall nothing special
Since this came from the same team that brought us the brilliant Prince of Egypt, I had high hopes of Joseph: King of Dreams. Based loosely on the biblical story of Jacob's son Joseph, who had the God-given gift of being able to interpret dreams, became unpopular with his brothers because of his father's favouritism and wash shipped off to Egypt as a slave but rose to become second in the land only to Pharaoh, this animated movie makes a good stab at bringing the account to life but falls down in some aspects. Though it was released after Prince of Egypt, it follows an earlier timeline - the Israelites coming into Egypt as friends, before a new Pharaoh arose and made slaves of them, which is where Prince of Egypt begins.
The similarities between this and the earlier Prince of Egypt (which told the story of Moses leading ...
Advantages: Great strong story, memorable characters, wonderful performances and a powerful film. Disadvantages: Plot at times a bit complex and I cannot remember the soundtrack.
and their friendship grew from there. At times I wondered about General Idi Amin and just how sane he was. Being in such a powerful position must have played its toll, but there was a certain charm about him despite the horrendous atrocities he committed. There is no excuse for the torture he put his people through but, many times we see that people in power are like puppets. They are often driven by some other force and Amin was plagued by his dreams. Amin who loved everything about Scotland gave himself the name of King of Scotland. I guess that this could offend many Scottish people who are far away from the way Amin used his authority. Strange how Amin adored the Scottish yet hated the English. Amin did actually serve in the Scottish military for some time and four of his sons were given Scottish names.
Although the film claims it was ...
