Exposing my ass as a raised catholic, but Prince of Egypt, Dreamworks premiere animated feature about Moses. It managed to humanize the story by grounding the conflict between Moses and his brother the Pharoah, playing up the pseudo-historicity of a christian story that features a lot of literal magic. The songs were bangers, and the cast was absolutely stacked. I also liked a lot of the meta-religious elements as well, such as when the burning bush talks to Moses, it's just the voice of the actor playing Moses, giving it this sorta ambiguity as to how real it might be.
These are my exact feelings on Jesus Christ Superstar
Yeeeerp everyone's Catholic mom's favorite movie
All it did was make me hugely sympathetic to Judas Iscariot lol
Isn't the point that you're supposed to forgive Judas?
