To enhance the commercial attraction, or to cater to Nikolaj Coster, the hero who plays the god Horus -Wardau came from the highlight of "Game of Thrones", the title of the title translated as "Gods of Egypt" was changed to "God Wars: Eyes of Power", which was self-defeating. Over the years, there have been a lot of bad movies with mythical and epic backgrounds, and it is easy for audiences to give up watching movies based on preconceived ideas and choose the popular all-age "Zootopia" in the same period. That would be a pity.
The plot of this film is rich and exciting, and it beats the "Three Hundred Spartans" starring Gerard Butler, who played the villain, the god of darkness, Set. The director and screenwriter cleverly set the blood of the gods in the film. It is gold, which has contributed to two effects: first, the brutal picture that should have been bloody was dissolved into a full beauty; second, the color of the golden armor and flesh of the gods transformed into it is unified with it, and the texture of the polished metal is very modern. , the audience naturally accepts that ancient Egyptian gods like Seth can also use force to seize wings, brains of wisdom, hearts of power, and eyes of omniscience and adjust their equipment to the highest value, no matter whether he looks like New Century Gospel Warrior, or Iron Man.
Yes, the inner fun of the film is modern comic-style, and its target audience is young people and people with young minds. You can even find a lot of deja vu in the film. For example, Shakespeare-style court battles between the sun god Ra, the eldest son Osiris, the second son Set, and Osiris son Horus are very common. Seth brought "chaos" outside the earth to Egypt. This kind of extreme negative energy behavior that destroyed the world was done by Loki and often by Shinji. The little girl handed Horus his missing eye, like a little boy who believed in Spider-Man came forward.
This film achieves the effect of Marvel movies embodying the big truth in the humorous and witty interaction between different characters. In China, aristocrats need robbers, and the god Horus has the thief Baker who took the initiative to steal an eye for him, and everything Baker does with him is for the one who believes that the god Horus can save the world. spouse. The journey of Horus and Baker to save the world is the process of reconciling his selfishness to avenge the murder of his father and the righteousness of going through many trials and growing into a new generation of wise kings. The pair, and the lovers who dared to sacrifice for justice, are as bright as the sun in the film's majestic Egyptian soundtrack.
Set's character line and Ra's godson are interesting. Ra is omniscient and omnipotent, and can even break the "impossible" boundary of life and death, and spends all day in the darkness and "chaos", and the ups and downs of war in Egypt's borders are reduced to trivial matters. He exiled Seth to the desert in order to cultivate his succession ability to live alone in heaven and guard the world. The inappropriate father's love leads to the distortion of Sait's character, and the film reveals his brutal temperament, bottomless desire, and even the nihilistic idea of destroying the world. The villain is strong enough, and the movie is good.
