score 10/10
When we go to the movies, we are expecting to be entertained, based on the expectations we go into it with based on movie type, actors , TV spots and our overall love of certain genres.
Ancient Egypt is a fascination for a lot of people , not only its spectacular architecture, but because of the tales of the same sorts of things we go through in this modern era, spun from the point of view of Gods intermingling with humans.
Betrayal sets the scene for the story of fathers and sons, friends and lovers and the often hardships they go through amidst in this case, a towering city of Gold where Gods govern among their human counterparts.
A solid musical score sets the tone for very decent effects, supporting a tale of love surrounding jealousy, immortal battles , teamwork & a clash of good vs hatred.
A world not unlike what we sometimes find ourselves in, will whisk you into a fantasy world , drop you into a bittersweet tale , and leave you with a few questions.
Egypt whether ancient or current era is a fascinating topic, and this move portrays a tale from a ancient past in a positive light with a fantastical twist that most users will enjoy.
There are a few scenes that parents ( some adults) will want to be cautious about , so ratings apply as always, but overall they found a decent balance between the depiction of graphic violence ( not gratuitous )and telling a story of love , jealousy and ultimate triumph, all through the lens of a place in time we've all come, rightfully so, fascinated by.
Worth watching.
