This is sensational cinema: crowds swarming among pyramids in eye-popping 3-D, camerawork that's distinctly Spielbergian in its fluidity.
David Edelstein, Slate

The blend of animation techniques somehow demonstrates mastery modestly, while the special effects are nothing short of magnificent.
Lisa Alspector, Chicago Reader

As epic, emotionally satisfying spectacle, it's way up there with the very best in mainstream animation.
Derek Adams, Time Out

The handsomely animated Prince of Egypt is an amalgam of Hollywood biblical epic, Broadway supermusical and nice Sunday school lesson.
Jeff Millar, Houston Chronicle
