PATREON MOVIE DISCUSSION:

This movie was selected by our Patreon Supporters over at the Cinematic Doctrine Patreon. Support as little as $3 a month and have your voice heard!

Shirleon joins Melvin to discuss our latest Patron-Selected movie, Exodus: Gods and Kings! Can Ridley Scott give this paramount Bible story the Gladiator treatment? Does it play fast and loose with the historical account? Was it, at the very least, enjoyable? Tune in to find out!

Topics:

  • (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 33-minutes discussing the various drama leading up to Snow White (2025)'s release as well as it's Rotten Tomato Score debut. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
  • Shirleon, "I hated it. I hated the direction that it went."
  • Melvin, "It's super rare to find movies that feel like they're devoid of content."
  • What deflates the material is how remedial it is compared to the rich complexities of the Biblical text.
  • A follow-up to criticism's mentioned in the Journey to Bethlehem episode regarding bible-reading statistics.
  • The film doesn't just mischaracterize historical figures, it mischaracterizes biblical figures, texts, and God Himself, all in ways that can't be considered concessions of the medium.
  • Melvin talks about the one scene in the movie he liked.
  • The two agree: It's not just a bad biblical adaptation, it's also a bad movie.
