Editorial Review:
Product Description:
Paramount Pictures celebrates the 50th anniversary of Cecil B. DeMille's Bible epic spectacular, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, with a double feature that includes both the 1956 version (Widescreen) and the director's original 1923 silent version (Full screen). See individual titles for plot details.
Amazon.com essential video:
Legendary silent film director Cecil B. DeMille didn't much alter the way he made movies after sound came in, and this 1956 biblical drama is proof of that. While graced with such 1950s niceties as VistaVision and Technicolor, The Ten Commandments (DeMille had already filmed an earlier version in 1923) has an anachronistic, impassioned style that finds lead actors Charlton Heston and Yul Brynner expressively posing while hundreds of extras writhe either in the presence of God's power or from orgiastic heat. DeMille, as always, plays both sides of the fence as far as sin goes, surrounding Heston's Moses with worshipful music and heavenly special effects while also making the sexy action around the cult of the Golden Calf look like fun. You have to see The Ten Commandments to understand its peculiar resonance as an old-new movie, complete with several still-impressive effects such as the parting of the Red Sea. --Tom Keogh

The Ten Commandments DVD (1956) with Charlton Heston.
Charlton Heston will always be remembered as Moses and this old film is an enduring classic.
It probably can never be equalled even with all the modern CGI and special effects and to repeat myself, is an enduring classic of biblical cinematograpahy.
Its long, its basic, no computer animation, but it's a great film.

Rating: -
You have to be nostalgic to go back to such a long and typical film of 1956. And yet the film has kept an intense charm. The special effects are of course old but they are believable: you cannot see the zipper in the back of the monstrous pharaoh. The charm though does not come from that brilliant set, the great costumes, the perfect acting, for this distant period at least. The actors speak the way actors used to speak on a sound stage because it was filmed on a sound stage. So the language is unnatural, ... Read More
