Gods of Egypt
Lionsgate has the only major releasing this tonight, with their $140 million box office presentation, Gods of Egypt. Starring Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Brenton Thwaites, Chadwick Boseman, Elodie Yung, Courtney Eaton, Rufus Sewell, Gerard Butler, and Geoffrey Rush – the fantasy film centers on ancient Egyptian war. With the survival of mankind hanging in the balance by the god of darkness known as Set, his takeover of the Egyptian empire is challenged by mortal hero Bek and the god Horus – who helps rescue his love and save the entire world from destruction.
Luckily for those of you intrigued enough at the film, it’s also releasing in 2D, RealD 3D, and IMAX 3D. We’re not sure how the masses will react to this fantasy presentation, but we’re at least intrigued at its storyline and cast of faces to give a second look. Whether or not this project can dethrone Deadpool remains to be seen; but many movie goers should be attracted to the project throughout the final days of February and heading forward into March.
