Synopsis:
From the filmmakers of the Academy Award-winning box office hit, The Prince of Egypt, comes an all-new animated epic, Joseph: King of Dreams.

One of the most critically acclaimed films of the year, this inspiring musical adventure retells the classic story of a boy (voiced by Ben Affleck), with an extraordinary gift of seeing the future through his dreams. Winner of the Film Advisory Board Award of Excellence, Joseph: King of Dreams is a timeless treasure for every generation, with five memorable new songs, sparkling animation and "storytelling at its best" (Alice O`Neill, Los Angeles Feature Syndicate). This family favorite is "destined to join The Prince of Egypt and The Lion King as an instant classic" (Bruce Kluger, Us Weekly).

8 / 10
Beautiful adaptation of a bible story. The animation is stunning and the story is very touching. Very few animations move me emotionally and this is one of the few. An animation with a message and Its just great stuff from the house of dreamworks. Ben Affleck voices the lead as Joseph magnificently. There are plenty of extras for everyone.
