Are you sure I didn't mention the CLEAVAGE? I didn't see a principal female's face for the first fifteen minutes! It was so beautiful I wept.Yes, lush, fantasitical, and a visual overload. The plot was mute but they did start out with the correct mythology and spun it all around from there. Basically, Osiris (Bryan Brown) is turning over his Kingdom of the lush Egypt to Horus (Coster-Waldau) when the bad uncle, Set (Butler), shows up and kills Osiris during the crowning of Horus. Set pulls out his eyes and Horus loses his squeeze, Hathor (Yung). We spend the rest of the time watching a young thief (Thwaites) stealing things in order to bring back his babe (Eaton). That's it. The rest is visual wonder with terrific CGI. This is primarily a backwash from the same Mad Max team.
Interestingly, Ra (Geoffrey Rush) spent all his time on a galaxtic sailing ship jousting a great worm that would consume all life on earth. Not such a glorious assignment god #1.
This film would almost be a kiddie feature for the exception of the cleavage. Kept me interested. This one will make guys use their little brain for most of the two hours.
Shout out to the Illuminati for making yet another film that confuses kids about gods, religion, and what is real or not. Fine job.
