Gods of Egypt Reviews

It meanders through waves of lame character interactions, mind-numbing fight sequences, uninspired creatures, and boring plot contrivances.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Aug 21, 2022

Summit Entertainment's absurdly staged sword and sandal epic features a laughably silly script, derivative plotting and, despite no established audience or recognized source material on which it's based, boasts a hefty price tag of 140 million.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Apr 22, 2022

Read the incredibly descriptive Wikipedia entry and call it a day.

| Oct 9, 2021

When even the human characters are impervious to peril, there's never really any suspense.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Dec 4, 2020

We had very high expectations for it but then it awfully disappointed.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 20, 2020

This is a badly rendered CGI wasteland that has no sense of fun or adventure, and wallows in its own mediocrity.

| Original Score: D- | Jul 13, 2020

Gods of Egypt is the latest in a long line of insane, half-assed fantasy epics that leave audiences scratching their heads, jaws agape, wondering what the they just witnessed. Half tedious, half the best time I've ever had at the movies.

| Original Score: B+ | Jul 3, 2020

The posters were ugly, the trailers foreshadowed disaster, and... yes, the movie did not disappoint in being a train wreck. [Full review in Spanish]

Not since Jupiter Ascending have I seen such a hot mess, but much more of an entertaining one.

| Apr 30, 2020

It was the best piece of hot, hot garbage that I've consumed this year.

| Apr 30, 2020

I felt neither disdain nor schadenfreude during it, only boredom and a slight headache afterwards.

| Feb 6, 2020

The gods Horus and Set assume winged form and dogfight with magic fire lasers as Apophis the Giant Worm of Chaos literally drinks the Nile River in the background, and yet it's deathly boring.

| Jan 13, 2020

GODS OF EGYPT is a movie that commands no respect and lets you sit back and have brainless fun.

| Aug 19, 2019

Gods of Egypt is likely to strike you down, with overwhelming boredom, an urge to cringe and a profound regret at spending actual money to see this big-budget turkey.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 7, 2019

You might say it's deliciously awful.

| Original Score: F | Apr 15, 2019

"Gods of Egypt" expresses an intense effort in its cinematography, but is accompanied by disappointing characters that are all brawn and no brain or heart. The characters are forgettable and lack substance, and the dialogue is comically bad.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Apr 5, 2019

While early action sequences show some flair, sadly the film's third act descends into the repetitive meaningless mass destruction we expect from modern blockbusters.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Mar 30, 2019

It's an utter failure from director Alex Proyas.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Feb 20, 2019

It's a brutal attempt to recreate the Egyptian folklore, with disastrous results.

| Original Score: F | Jan 15, 2019

They just keep inventing story points...the worst part of this movie, though, is that it's 127 minutes...

| Original Score: 1.8/5 | Oct 16, 2018
