14. Gods of Egypt – Mortal Heroes vs. Deities

Gods of Egypt (2016) stars mortal thief Bek teaming up with Horus to fight Set, the god of darkness. In this over-the-top visually elaborate film, human ingenuity battles divine power to explore loyalty, love, and defiance. Underlying the whole narrative is Bek's determination to save his beloved; human resilience can match even the mightiest gods. Although the movie came under attack on historical inaccuracies, its innovative retelling of Egyptian mythology sets up an intriguing playground for man vs. myth.
