Product description

In this spectacular action-adventure inspired by the classic mythology of Egypt, the survival of mankind hangs in the balance as an unexpected mortal hero Bek (Brenton Thwaites) undertakes a thrilling journey to save the world and rescue his true love. In order to succeed, he must enlist the help of the powerful god Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) in an unlikely alliance against Set (Gerard Butler), the merciless god of darkness, who has usurped Egypt’s throne, plunging the once peaceful and prosperous empire into chaos and conflict. As their breathtaking battle against Set and his henchmen takes them into the afterlife and across the heavens, both god and mortal must pass tests of courage and sacrifice if they hope to prevail in the epic final confrontation.

Gods against gods

Reviewed in Australia on 4 April 2018

Remember those movies based on Greek legends like "Immortals" or "Clash of the Titans"? Action-heavy, glossy, with sort of a sheen?

Well, Alex Proyas - yes, the guy who gave us "The Crow" - apparently decided that that Egyptian myths were ripe for movie adaptation, and thus gave us the gold-plated sandy abomination known as "Gods of Egypt." Aside from the distracting whitewashing of much of the cast, the movie feels a lot like the cut-scenes of a very cinematic video game, but with less appealing characters... and when your depiction of ancient Egypt is less faithful than that of "Yu-Gi-Oh," you have a problem.

The movie takes place in an ancient Egypt where the gods - who look just like humans except that they're giants - rule the commonfolk as kings. But things go awry when the evil god Set (Gerard Butler) interrupts the coronation of Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) to kill his brother Osiris (Bryan Brown) and tear out Horus' eyes, which give him his divine power (including the ability to turn into a golden hawk-man). Soon everybody in Egypt is enslaved by Set, including a young thief named Bek (Brenton Thwaites) and his girlfriend Zaya (Courtney Eaton).

The only one who can stop Set is the exiled Horus, so a young thief named Bek (Brenton Thwaites) steals back one of his lost eyes. However, his girlfriend is killed during their getaway, so Bek makes a deal with Horus: her life in exchange for the eye and information about Set's pyramid. After a quick trip to Ra's snake-fighting spaceship (yes, really), the odd couple must go up against the deadly traps and creatures that Set has arrayed against them - and Set himself is about to get a lot more divinely powerful. Also, Apophis.

"Gods of Egypt" really does feel like one of those cut-scenes "movies" that people make out of video game footage on Youtube, where most (but not all) of the game-play has been cut out for time. In fact, the entire film is more or less structured like a video game, and so are many of the challenges that the main characters face, such as any monsters that they are confronted by or any elaborate "levels" they must pass. Throw in some Easter eggs and multiple endings, and guess what you get.

And that is one of "Gods of Egypt's" biggest sins: it's just not very interesting on its own, without levels or puzzles to unravel. You get the feeling that Proyas has some genuine passion for Egyptian myth and the fantasy world he's created, but it never sweeps the audience away the same way. Instead you feel like you're watching a paint-by-numbers adventure movie without much identity of its own, only some canned moral messages about how mortals are wonderful, MacGuffins galore, too-frequent bloated action scenes and a pair of love interests so uninteresting that they're nearly transparent.

It also suffers from a pedestrian script that struggles to be something unique ("I don't know if I'm strong enough." "Then become stronger."), and has some real clunkers that made me wince ("I'm the goddess of love! If I don't do this, I am nothing!"). Also, Proyas had an interesting idea with the solar spaceship, but it didn't quite work.

Plenty has been said about the whitewashing in this movie, so I'll simply say that most of the main cast are far too pale to be credible Egyptian anythings. Coster-Waldau, to his credit, does seem to be trying really, really hard as Horus, but the character is so loaded with cliches that the actor is practically crushed by them. Thwaites tries to play Bek as a roguish lovable thief like Disney's Aladdin, but has neither the charm nor the intelligence to pull it off or make us like him.

Butler is absolutely hilarious, though. He seems to be saving all his caring for the next "How To Train Your Dragon" movie, so he has none left for this one. He wanders through the movie with his Scottishness hanging out like a sporran, as if he couldn't be bothered to pretend; if he visibly cared less, he would be wearing a fuzzy bathrobe and a pair of slippers.

While Proyas' passion is evident, "Gods of Egypt" feels like the Egyptian love child of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Clash of the Titans," but without the charisma of either. Not stiflingly bad, just tedious and vaguely saddening.

An awesome Egyptian fantasy

Reviewed in Canada on 14 June 2016

Verified Purchase

I thought this is an awesome fantasy film of the year. In fact it's the only film of 2016 I had reviewed so far. Also another reason why I love this mythological references in it as a connoisseur on folklore and myth.

Set in a time in ancient Egypt where the gods live among the humans, vengeful Set killed his brother King Osiris, usurp the throne from his nephew Prince Horus on his coronation and plucked his mystical eyes as well. With that, all of Egypt is enslaved and conquered. Two youngsters Bek and his sweetheart Zaya had managed to steal back one of Horus' eyes. But during their escape, Zaya was shot by an arrow and died. At the tomb where Horus had hid all those years (or months), Bek strikes a bargain with the despondent god: Resurrect Zaya in exchange for the other eye and help to stop Set. That's all I am telling. You folks will have see it for yourself.

Overall, this is an awesome movie. It is very well written and is really cool! The story was perfect, full of suspense and really worth the PG-13 rating. I don't have a favorite scene (I know I had said that many times), because I love the whole film - from beginning to end.

Interesting and working on a Blu-ray DVD player

Reviewed in Canada on 20 January 2018

Verified Purchase

It is an interesting and funny movie; it is a mix of mythology and history of Egypt. It is different of all the movies that I have seen. So, it is a good choice. I have an important remark about the quality of this DVD: it does not play at all on my regular Pioneer DVD player, but it plays very well on my Blu-ray Seiki DVD player. So, it is like a Blu-ray DVD even if it is not written on the box or on the DVD.

Great movie with many CGI effects that provides lots of possibilities. Some artistic license was taken which strays from the historical perspectives. Interesting twist as to the plausible origins of Pharaohs. Love it
