Why don't some people like the 10 Commandments?

Cecil B. DeMille—never one to settle for a good ripping yarn—tarted up this good ripping yarn with every device, technique, and name-brand face he could get his hands on.

Yvonne De Carlo failed to project the gravitas that would serve her so well on The Munsters.

It should have been an opera.
