Sex & Nudity

  • The baby soon to be named Moses is shown to be naked, but you don't see much of it.

Violence & Gore

  • The Pharao's guards are ordered to kill every newborn child they can find. If any child is actually killed is never seen, due to the scene focusing on the baby soon to be named Moses.
  • A man cuts off a rope that causes a bucket to fall on a guard, while a songbird pinches another guard's hand.
  • Moses and Ramses have a brief swordfight. Moses loses his sword, but has his throat poked on by Ramses' sword.
  • Moses mentions he'd let his songbird sing by plucking his feathers one by one. He never does that.
  • A man is about to whip another man's back. He gets stopped by Moses before he can even strike.
  • The sick Pharao is seen dying.
  • Ramses' son throws a birdcage on the floor. The songbird in the cage doesn't actually get hurt, but is seen getting dizzy.
  • A snake (actually Moses' staff) quickly eats two smaller snakes.
  • The river is quickly turned into blood.
  • A wild beast jumps out of a basket and starts chasing a man, while a monkey throws an apple on a man's head. Very brief.
  • Cattle can be seen sick or dead, but that's hard to see because it's all seen from the sky.

Profanity

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • There are a few scenes that can be dramatic or mildly upsetting, including the opening scene with the guards being ordered to kill all newborn children they can see. But nothing too bad for a kids' cartoon.

Spoilers

Violence & Gore

  • Ramses' child is revealed to be dead. It's not directly mentioned, but you can briefly see Ramses holding the child, in silhouette.
  • ENDING SPOILER: After the Red Sea has been divided in half for a while, allowing Moses' people to cross safely, it returns back to normal, seemingly drowning Ramses and his people to death.
