The Story

The movie begins with the Pharaoh's men raiding a Jewish settlement in Egypt. Jochebed (also spelled as Yocheved) (Ofra Haza) keeps her son in a reed basket and sets it afloat on River Nile hoping that this would save his son from the misery. Meanwhile, the basket is noticed by the Queen of Egypt (Helen Mirren) who adopts the baby and names him Moses. Twenty years down the line, Moses (Val Kilmer) and his foster-brother, Rameses II (Ralph Fiennes), are shown racing their chariots through Egyptian temples thereby, destroying the idols of the Gods. Rameses feels offended when scolded by his father, Seti I, who believes that he would ruin the family dynasty, as Rameses is in line for the throne.	影片一开场，就是埃及法老的军队袭击犹太人聚居地的场景。为了让自己的儿子躲过这场灾难，约基别（奥芙拉•哈扎配音）把儿子放到一个芦苇筐里，让它顺着尼罗河漂流而下。此间，埃及王后（海伦•米伦配音）发现了芦苇筐，并收养了这个小男孩，取名为摩西。20年过去了，摩西（方•基默配音）和他的兄弟拉美西斯二世（拉尔夫•费因斯配音，摩西的养父母之子）驾马车穿梭在附近的埃及神庙中一比高低，因此毁坏了不少神像。拉美西斯受到了父亲塞提一世的指责，感到很不爽。父亲觉得他这样做会毁掉整个家族王朝，因为拉美西斯即将成为王位的继承人。
Later in the evening, a banquet is held where Rameses is named Prince Regent who joyfully names Moses as the Royal Chief Architect. The high priests Hotep (Steve Martin) and Huy (Martin Short) come forward and offer Tzipporah (Michelle Pfeiffer) to Rameses as a gift. However, Rameses rejects to accept and gives the girl to Moses. Later, she runs away with the help of Moses. He follows her and reaches a Jewish settlement where he meets his siblings, Miriam (Sandra Bullock) and Aaron (Jeff Goldblum) and comes to know about the truth. Though Moses denies at start but one nightmare and a discussion with his adoptive parents exposes the truth.	当天晚上的宴会上，拉美西斯就被任命为摄政王，他很高兴地将摩西冠以皇家首席建筑师的头衔。宫殿的两位高级祭司（史蒂夫•马丁/马丁•肖特配音）上前，将米甸少女西坡拉（米歇尔•菲佛配音）作为礼物献给了拉美西斯。不过，拉美西斯并没有接受，而是将这个少女转手送给了摩西。后来，在摩西的帮助下，她逃离了宫殿。摩西跟着她，来到了犹太人居住的贫民窟。在那里，他遇到了他的亲生姐姐米利暗（桑德拉•布洛克配音）和哥哥亚伦（杰夫•高布伦配音），渐渐了解了自己的身世。尽管摩西刚开始不能接受，但是一场噩梦之后，从他养父母的口中，他得知了自己的身世真相。
This leads to killing of an Egyptian guard while abusing an old slave by Moses. Eventually he runs away in exile and reaches Midian, where he saves Tzipporah's sisters from bandits. Jethro (Danny Glover), Tzipporah's father welcomes him with open arms and designates him the position of a shepherd. Gradually, Moses and Tzipporah get attracted towards each other resulting in their marriage. While chasing a stray lamb, Moses reaches a burning bush where he is instructed by God (Val Kilmer) to set free the slaves from Egypt. Moses and Tzipporah return back to the palace and surprisingly find that Rameses has been crowned the Pharaoh and is married with a young son.	因此也就有了后面发生的这件事儿。一次，为了阻止一名埃及工头虐待希伯来一个老奴工，摩西失手杀死了这个工头。最后，他逃离宫殿，流亡来到米甸，在那里他还将西坡拉的几个姐妹从土匪手里救了下来。西坡拉的父亲叶忒罗（丹尼•格洛弗配音）向他表示热烈欢迎，还将他留下给家里放羊。慢慢地，摩西和西坡拉彼此吸引，两人结了婚。一次放牧时，摩西追寻一只迷途的羔羊，来到了一处燃烧的荆棘丛旁。就在那里，上帝（方•基默配音）现身，教导他去解放那些在埃及受苦受难的奴隶。摩西和西坡拉回到埃及宫殿，意外发现拉美西斯已成为现任法老，而且结了婚，膝下还有一个幼子。
