Gods of Egypt
Gods, monsters and total mayhem ensue in this mythical Egyptian fantasy adventure starring Gerard Butler (300) as the dark god Set, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Game of Thrones) as the almighty Horus, and Brenton Thwaites (Maleficent) and Courtney Eaton (Mad Max: Fury Road) as noble mortals Bek and Zaya.

With the survival of mankind hanging in the balance, an unexpected hero takes a journey to save the world and rescue his true love. Set has usurped Egypt’s throne, plunging the once peaceful and prosperous empire into conflict. With only a handful of heroic rebels opposing Set’s savage rule, Bek enlists the aid of powerful god Horus in an unlikely alliance against the evil overlord. Their battle against Set and his henchmen will take them into the afterlife and across the heavens.

Time Out
The closing moments set up a sequel, a prospect far more terrifying than anything we've just seen.

Some movies are so effing awful they're hilarious. Gods of Egypt falls short of that lofty goal.
