The Ten Commandments [Blu-ray] [1956] [Region Free]

The best version of this biblic tale. Another great epic from the golden age of Hollywood cinema. The image of the blu-ray looks Restored and looks great! Vivid colors, super details, and Nice contrast and blacks level.

A classic of cinema. The glorious presentation with classic intermission half way through, the glorious rich colour and stunning acting. Like many I have no interest in religion but I do love the Bible stories I grew up with in school. For me the stand out role was Yule Brinner's portrayal of the pharoah, especially the scene where he has to confront the truth that his young son is dead and he begins to quesiton his own faith in his own gods, all the while his wife is mocking him, just two superb actors playing roles to perfecyion. I like the overall story I find Heston to be competent but he seems to have been cast simply as "beefcake eye-candy" during Moses' earlier life, ripped shirt and bronzed complexion. Later in the film with the white beard and hair he simply looks a little too "local church production" for my liking, you half expect his beard to have those little wire hooks holding it on! A great film to pass a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, get some snacks in and just while away a few hours enjoying a classic piece of overdone American cinema, classic!

Great dvd. Excellent quality and price

Beautiful film

I remember seeing this film on it's cinema release years ago but had missed the numerous TV showings. I don't like to watch films interrupted by commercial breaks anyway so thought it was about time I invested in the DVD release. I am glad I did. The film is just as vibrant and dramatic as I remembered, well acted and directed with towering performances from the leads and supporting actors. Charlton Heston as Moses and Yul Brynner as Rameses are the ideal pairing, sparking off one another in the early Egyptian scenes and developing as the film progresses. The special effects are still good although perhaps a little primitive compared to todays computer generated offerings but you don't buy this film for the effects only, the story and acting are enough to make the movie worthwhile viewing. The approach is respectful to the biblical story, almost reverential in tone, which makes a refreshing change from todays more sceptical or downright cynical view of biblical history. Whether one believes this is a depiction of actual events or simply a fiction it is a great movie experience and well recommended.

great i enjoyed it thank you

This has been one of my favourite movies for over 40 years and I have it on all platforms but when I received it on 4K I was blown away ,I mean the steelbook was already amazing and looks really nice. The 4K disc however is a whole different story....for a movie from 1956 that is nearly 4 hours long it's an unbelievable achievement to make it look this good ,it simply is beautiful and will most likely be my most valued possession in my collection. If you love this movie and you are doubting to upgrade your Bluray........all I can say is " Thy shall not doubt about purchasing this incredible movie on 4K" Seriously,it's an amazing experience.....movie 10/10..... 4K transfer 10/10....and the steelbook 10/10..... Go buy it

I was delighted to track this down after seeing it decades ago. Unbeatable. The lives of Egyptian royalty and Hebrew slaves are displayed in the sharpest possible contrast, so that the victory of the underdogs over the mighty empire is extraordinarily miraculous. The cast must run into thousands, on a scale we do not see today. Most historical facts seem faithfully portrayed. The Mount Sinai and desert scenes are such a contrast to the luxury of the Egyptian court for Moses, who takes a common wooden staff in place of a royal sceptre. The many miracles are skilfully shown within the confines of film making. The death of the firstborn is harrowing, but Rameses fails to exact revenge against the God of Israel Who parts the sea in an iconic scene never equalled since. Put your feet up for a few hours and find new inspiration in life!

een van de mooiste oude film uit de bijbel zo maken ze geen films meer een echte aanrader

Awesome, I love watching these old movies

Reçu aujourd’hui, je regarde le 4k, j’avais le blu-ray. Quelle différence c’est vraiment un travail incroyable. Allez y acheter le 4k il est vraiment magnifique à regarder. Le son est clair et pur et la qualité du film un qualité d’images et avec des couleurs de dingue. Si ben hur pouvait être pareil ! J’espère…. Un travail géantissime , ça fait plaisir ! Les enfants seront émerveillés par tant de beauté. La barre est tellement haute que je pense pas qu’on puisse faire mieux. Quel plaisir ce chef d’œuvre ! Que cela soit écrit et accompli !

Esta edicion (edicion francesa) lleva perfecto castellano, la edicion es preciosa y el sonido y la imagen es mas que aceptable para este clasico La edicion incluye 2 Bluray y la unica pega que le encuentro es que por dentro (una vez abierta) el steelbook carece de imagenes ilustrativas por dentro de la caja, cosa que la hubiera hecho aun mas espectacular pero a un precio de 9,32 Euros ... no se puede pedir mas y es una de las compras mas asequibles que he hecho en amazon, sin duda

Moïse, la mer qui s'écarte, les 7 plaies d'Egypte... C'est le classique absolu des films bibliques. Charlton Heston est LE moïse du cinéma. La version 4K est splendide. Les couleurs éclatantes avec une remasterisation magnifique. Le coté négatif est bien sur les effets spéciaux. Ils ont pris un sacré coup de vieux, mais cela fait aussi partie du plaisir qu'on a à regarder ce chef d'oeuvre du cinéma américain. Coté son, on nous sert un mono d'origine en français... Encore une fois, les distributeurs en font le moins possible, pour gagner le plus d'argent possible. En anglais on a quant même droit à un DTS 5.1... Un film à voir et à revoir d'urgence.
