7) The Prince of Egypt
In 1998, DreamWorks pictures (the creative minds behind other blockbuster efforts like Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, and The Croods) chose to produce a project based on the biblical story of the Exodus, as their second major effort as a studio (a risky proposition). With a score composed by Hans Zimmer, and an all-star cast of actors voicing the characters, the Prince of Egypt was a powerful and significant addition to the pantheon of biblical film-making success.
