And I mean to the movies.

Not me.  I watched the trailer and it seemed like a violent movie, I don't like to watch violent movies.  I'm not talking about the plagues, the clip I watched showed sword clashing between Moses and Ramses and I don't personally care to watch man-on-man violence.

I wonder what the rating will be?  It showed "NR" as of today.

This is the first I've heard of it.  Our home is blissfully television, smart phone, wifi free, so we don't hear/see much advertising.
I'll look into.  I pray it's not yet another agenda-driven, scriptural rewriting like Noah, but I won't hold my breath.

Checked it out a bit.
There is an impressive cast of talented actors, and with director Ridley Scott, it's sure to have exceptional special effects.  I just don't trust Hollywood with anything related to our Faith.

Do the stone men who helped Noah come back to help Moses?

I doubt very much that this production will have anything to do with the book.

Aronofsky has a reputation of making crazy, bizarre and senseless films.

Needless to say he has nothing to do with this one.
