Friday’s Openings: 10C’s Redux

Seems when directors age, they turn curiously religious. That would explain why Darren Aronofsky (45) made “Noah” and why Ridley Scott (77) has made his version of “Exodus: Gods and Kings,” which is the only major mainstream opening this coming weekend. Then again, things in the Old Testament did blow up pretty good. … Welsh-born Christian Bale plays Moses, and Australia’s Joel Edgerton steps in as Rhamses in Scott’s version of the Bible story. So, does that make Edgerton The Joker to Bale’s biblical Batman?/ Dan Webster , 7 Blog. More of Friday’s openings here. (AP photo, of Christian Bale as Moses)
