The most poetic, beautiful and artistic movie about Egypt came from Egypt. It was made by Shadi Abdul Salam, called the Mummy and won many international awards.
Still waiting for more historically acceptable movies on Ancient Egypt. I know, it's just movies, but still, some people seem to think they are accurate enough ... which they aren't.
Accurate huh? more like denial to me--because whites look odd trying to associate themselves with a civilization which existed long before, we the black race brought them here--it really is a big joke--you can see that they don't belong there dressing in that attire. this civilization had a high level of spirituality and morality, something none of these other races can claim to be. they carry with them, a sick hatred to the very race who brought them here and taught them human civilization--they need to start telling their children the truth about it
Actually they are accurate but we just keep the real secrets or the other opinions of the story is possible too , but if you get down to egypt you will be told the "real" reality that really happened in the old ancient times

Don't take any historical information from any of those movies as reality and what really happened, many mistakes and script that serves specific groups to manipulate and rewrite the history of such great and astonishing civilisation
You are right. The Ten Commandments and Exodus are based on Bible. While the Qur'an was revealed after Bible.and the Bible is compiled book written on memory based.
The Egyptian 1954. No one has ever seen it, but it's a beautiful movie with a most original story. A poor young boy grows up to be a physician to the Pharoah and is seduced and destroyed by a beautiful woman. His destruction leads to the destruction of the Pharaoh. It's a great story beautifully filmed and set. Jene Tierny, Michale Wilding, Victor Mature and many more Hollywood legends.
I've seen it, and read the book before the movie. Has a good cast, and the ham of hams, Victor Mature. The story is about a weak Pharaoh who wants to replace the old Gods with one God... which results in the reactionary priests opposing him .... leading to his downfall.
Yes.. but it was not a huge box office hit being somewhat boring, The hero was actually Sinuhe a physician . ahe girl was Jean Simmons .Pharoah was played by an accomplished English actor whose name escapes me.@@richardscanlan3419
I can't believe they'd have "The Mummy" in the list but not include "Land of the Pharoahs" or "The Egyptian." Also, the 1934 "Cleopatra" starring Claudette Colbert is better than the '63 version.
I have both "Land of the Pharaohs: and "The Egyptian".And yes,they should both be on the list. The Mummy is right up there with 'Gladiator" i.e historical bubblegum,not to be tsken seriously.

Agora is really awesome movie, everything is great about that one, top quality in every way,the scene the cast, the point of this movie is true and rich. ♥️
What a fascinating list of films that provides a glimpse into ancient Egyptian civilization. The Mummy films are always fun adventure rides set in such an exotic time and place. It was interesting to learn about some of the less mainstream but still visually stunning epics like Exodus: Gods and Kings. You've compiled an excellent selection here spanning different genres that effectively bring this ancient world to life on screen. Videos like this one are great for discovering new movies to fuel my curiosity about ancient Egypt. Thanks for sharing!
Where on your list is the masterpiece "Pharoah" 1966 Kawalerowicz movie? It's on the Martin Scorsese list of the best masterpieces of all time. Incredible motion picture. And you have blockbusters like mummy on your list? Com'on
The 1954 film The Egyptian, which can be found on You Tube, was better by far than any shown here. The film covers the period of Atkenaten, the heretic king who worshiped the sun and became recognized as a hopeless incompetent as pharaoh.
Thats inaccurate though. FIrst he didnt worship the sun, he was the first monotheistic king of Egypt. He was not incompetent..He is probably the most famous and mysterious of all. He had many achievements one is the city of Amarna which is buried under the sand and many more.. All the paintings of him are unfortunately confiscated and ruined.. Some one reallllyyy doesnt want the truth about akhenaten to come out...
@@ashiinsane90 Monotheistic (monotheism) refers to the worship of one god. In Akhenaten's case, it was Aten. His reign led to great turmoil and the abandonment of his new capitol, Amarna. Not exactly a rousing endorsement for his rule.
in all of these movies not a one true Egyptian i have seen ? how can you call it historically accurate if the people you are making it about are not even there?
@@lorraineclarke4868 Regarding the main characters, one only has to look at the names in the cast and look at the people themselves; they are all people of European decent. The 1956 "The Ten Commandments" however was filmed in Egypt, and Egyptians were cast as extras. The dude that drove Ramses' chariot was an Egyptian, and all the Egyptian charioteers (except Henry Wilcoxon) that Ramses led in pursuit of the Israelites were cast from the Egyptian cavalry.
So far, Agora is the only one that had an Egyptian actor, Sami Samir (8:01), play an Egyptian character. Egypt is controversial in the talk of racial politics. Eugenics supporters believed they were white because "they were smart." Blacks believe they were black because Egypt is in African and has been described as dark/brown skin (like many others). Currently, almost all Egyptian citizens are of Arabic descent or have Arabic features. The only other actor I know that is Egyptian and played an Egyptian is Rami Malek, while Sofia Boutella of North African descent is the closest female I know of in The Mummy.
Currently almost all modern Egyptians are indigenous Egyptians and have Arabic features because indigenous ancient Egyptians had that "Arabic features".

What you describe is pretty much what I've always expected. Never got around to seeing it. Wouldn't mind, however. Give it a fair shot, eh?
I have seen all 4 movies but not Agora. I can not comment about the Egyptians history cos I don't know about it. All I know from documentaries the findings algrologists finds. Sometimes they can be wrong or can they?
Another vote for “Land of the Pharaohs” a very intelligent film directed by Howard Hawks. A splendid performance by Jack Hawkins. Joan Collins camps it up and Dewy Martin is hunky and sincere.
Real Egyptians must be pissed. Only Cleopatra and Agora actually happened. All the other stories were fake...though the Mummy never pretended to be real.
I thought modern Egyptians try to censor old non-Islamic history now. Maybe I'm just confusing different Islamic organizations. I only know of two Egyptians that played Egyptians, one I learned of recently: Rami Malek and Sami Samir.
Where is the ancient egypt? Only bible movies where the egyptians are the bad guys, and was NOT during ancient egypt, and the rest is during the ptolomeic dynasty, again not ancient egypt
The gods of Egypt. Good film. It's a shame they don't do a lot of films of Egyptian myths. Great story's. Not all ways but mostly abount mummies. Good show.👍
Kick one of them CGI demo tapes off that list and put *The Egyptian* on it. Fiction, but tries to depict a context of historic plausibility with improvisational candor.
Do you expect such an uneven list to be taken seriously. One selection was questionable - another downright silly. The fact you overlooked Fox’s The Egyptian is even more glaring. Do your homework.
i've always been fascinated with ancient egypt but.. all this movies w white actors and horrible modernized costumes are... so disappointing, I can't even get into the mummy as much as I used to as child. i so wish we could get a more diverse cast for a truly ancient Egyptian setting in a movie, with no Christian morale to distract from the amazing culture long past.. i know we don't 100 % know what ancient Egyptians looked like skin color-wise but we also 100% know they weren't white.. soo Hollywood at least do this right.. once
youtube bring back the wide screen on the side remove the black bars i like youtube like it was in the old day full screen was full screen with no black bars full screen like you tv
Ten commandments seems to be the best as far as costumes and erecting the obelisk was probably how it was done. Somebody did some research on that movie. Cleopatra was done ok, but probably over the top on the parade into Rome.
The exodus is found to be fiction. Moses did not grow up with ramses the second. There is a whole series on the this. Ramses the second was a warrior king who also signed the first peace treaty in the world. He was away warring most of his reigning years.
what about the Cecil B DeMille versions of THE TEN COMMANDMENTS and CLEOPATRA? Kudos on knowing about AGORA. You can hardly count a version of THE MUMMY - and even if you did, Boris Karloff or Christopher Lee did it better. You might as well do ASTERIX AND CLEOPATRA CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA, if only for Claude Rains being almost the only authentically short Caesar onscreen. Another of the many wrong things about EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS: Egyptians and Hittites didn't use horses as cavalry. You missed probably the best: Howard Hawks LAND OF THE PHARAOHS

I have seen all 4 movies but not Agora. I can not comment about the Egyptians history cos I don't know about it. All I know from documentaries the findings algrologists finds. Sometimes they can be wrong or can they?
Another vote for “Land of the Pharaohs” a very intelligent film directed by Howard Hawks. A splendid performance by Jack Hawkins. Joan Collins camps it up and Dewy Martin is hunky and sincere.
And written by William Faulkner!
Real Egyptians must be pissed. Only Cleopatra and Agora actually happened. All the other stories were fake...though the Mummy never pretended to be real.
glad you said that
I thought modern Egyptians try to censor old non-Islamic history now. Maybe I'm just confusing different Islamic organizations. I only know of two Egyptians that played Egyptians, one I learned of recently: Rami Malek and Sami Samir.
The Ten Commandments was fake demon!
@@MrAnwer96 of course the demonic are in lock step with the demonic
For Christians, the Bible story is real.
Where is the ancient egypt? Only bible movies where the egyptians are the bad guys, and was NOT during ancient egypt, and the rest is during the ptolomeic dynasty, again not ancient egypt
Agora is the best and exodus is the worst !
You should have included Land of then Pharoahs , only the Ten Commandments is better
What’s the song used on the trailer of Exodus (0:13) ?
The gods of Egypt. Good film. It's a shame they don't do a lot of films of Egyptian myths. Great story's. Not all ways but mostly abount mummies. Good show.👍
I remember really liking Land of the Pharaohs.
Kick one of them CGI demo tapes off that list and put *The Egyptian* on it. Fiction, but tries to depict a context of historic plausibility with improvisational candor.
Exodus is the most distorted movie in this list!
Mad to think none of these films have no accurate historic depictions... I dont see one black person
Because there were barely any blacks in Egypt (except for the Nubians in the south).
Lmfaoo Egyptians we’re mostly black you clown, there are literal historic facts at your finger tips you are on the internet aren’t you ?
maybe because they arent portraying slaves
Prince Of Egypt
Land of the Pharaohs?!
Do you expect such an uneven list to be taken seriously. One selection was questionable - another downright silly. The fact you overlooked Fox’s The Egyptian is even more glaring. Do your homework.
This list is made for purely publicement. Where was THE EGYPTIAN and LAND OF THE PHARAOHS?
The mummy films are class tbh
they are bad
The Prince Of Egypt
The Mummy('99)
The Scorpion King
The Mummy Returns
X-MEN: Apocalypse
X-MEN: Apocalypse ! love it.
Terrible pics.
@@OkurkaBinLadin the fuck is u talkin' bout?
i've always been fascinated with ancient egypt but.. all this movies w white actors and horrible modernized costumes are... so disappointing, I can't even get into the mummy as much as I used to as child. i so wish we could get a more diverse cast for a truly ancient Egyptian setting in a movie, with no Christian morale to distract from the amazing culture long past.. i know we don't 100 % know what ancient Egyptians looked like skin color-wise but we also 100% know they weren't white.. soo Hollywood at least do this right.. once
Totally agree with you.
God of Egypt 1 more movie
How could they leave this out?
Polish Pharaoh is also pretty good. It actually tells story from POV of egyptian ruler.
@@OkurkaBinLadin I have been meaning to watch that one and read the novel its based on.
"Gods of Egypt" was totally whitewashed.
Christian Bale (Moses) great actor and great movie Exodus
Land of the Pharaohs Jack Hawkins
I still have a vivid childhood memory of the sealing of the pyramid at the end. Gave me the willies for days!
youtube bring back the wide screen on the side remove the black bars i like youtube like it was in the old day full screen was full screen with no black bars full screen like you tv
Yes
Ten commandments seems to be the best as far as costumes and erecting the obelisk was probably how it was done. Somebody did some research on that movie. Cleopatra was done ok, but probably over the top on the parade into Rome.
Where the fuck is The Prince of Egypt??? That should be at number 1!!
Thank you
Please, what is the name of the movie?
The best movie about ancient Egypt is Faraon, directed by the Polish Jerzy Kawalerowicz in1966. Full stop.
The exodus is found to be fiction. Moses did not grow up with ramses the second.
There is a whole series on the this. Ramses the second was a warrior king who also signed the first peace treaty in the world. He was away warring most of his reigning years.
the prince of egypt? GOAT
what about the Cecil B DeMille versions of THE TEN COMMANDMENTS and CLEOPATRA?
Kudos on knowing about AGORA.
You can hardly count a version of THE MUMMY - and even if you did, Boris Karloff or Christopher Lee did it better. You might as well do ASTERIX AND CLEOPATRA
CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA, if only for Claude Rains being almost the only authentically short Caesar onscreen.
Another of the many wrong things about EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS: Egyptians and Hittites didn't use horses as cavalry.
You missed probably the best: Howard Hawks LAND OF THE PHARAOHS
I would not have done the Exodus movie. I would do the movie called The Egyptian from 1954 instead.
The egyptian was a good movie from the 50's
Where is Gods of Egypt ?
Army of the Pharaohs 💙📉🏁
My favourite is exodus when ramesses the great and cleopatra are brothers
Gods of Egypt is a marvelous film too
No. Just no
the water turned to blood not crocodiles ate people
Agora wasn't about Egypt it was about Greece
i like egyptian vibe
So,
No.5) Moses
No.4) Cleopatra
No.3) spooky timetraveling mummy
No.2) Cleopatra girlboss mode
No.1) Moses again
