To escape the edict of Egypt's Pharaoh Rameses I (Ian Keith), condemning all newborn Hebrew males, the infant Moses (Fraser C. Heston) is set adrift on the Nile in a reed basket. Saved by the pharaoh's daughter Bithiah (Nina Foch), he is adopted by her and brought up in the court of her brother, Pharaoh Sethi (Sir Cedric Hardwicke). Moses (Charlton Heston) gains Sethi's favor and the love of the throne Princess Nefretiri (Anne Baxter), as well as the hatred of Sethi's son, Rameses II (Yul Brynner). When his Hebrew heritage is revealed, Moses is cast out of Egypt, and makes his way across the desert where he marries, has a son, and is commanded by God to return to Egypt to free the Hebrews from slavery. In Egypt, Moses' fiercest enemy proves to be not Rameses II, but someone near to him who can "harden his heart".

| Empire MagazineTom TunneyAn epic soap opera of an event -- the running time is longer than any church service -- that still impresses more than it amuses. |
| Hollywood ReporterJames PowersThere is no other picture like it. There will be none. If it could be summed up in a word, the word would be sublime. And the man responsible for that, when all is said and done is Cecil B. DeMille. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumWith a running time of nearly four hours, Cecil B. De Mille's last feature and most extravagant blockbuster is full of the absurdities and vulgarities one expects, but it isn't boring for a minute. |

| Decent Films GuideSteven D. GreydanusAs much a testament and a fixture of traditional American ideals and affections as a courthouse display of the stone tablets, and as weighty and solid. |
| Movie MetropolisJames PlathStill a grand biblical epic that's just a notch below "Ben-Hur" in terms of its performances, narrative drama, and special effects. |
| Common Sense MediaCharles CassadyStirring, even if it's as much showbiz as Bible. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. Puccio...a benchmark of comparison for all super spectaculars, and in its restored, high-definition Blu-ray presentation, it's more spectacular than ever. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonDeMille's film fairly bursts with color and hugeness, even when the characters sit around on one set and talk at one another -- which happens a lot. |
| Time OutStephen GarrettIt's the gigantic vulgarity, the obsessive righteousness of the director himself, which keeps the show on the road and suffuses the movie with its daft power. |
