It clearly seems to have been made with the desire of making something of quality that just fails spectacularly, and there are definitely some unintentionally laughable moments -- actually a lot of them.

Granted, there's really no good reason for this nonsense to last over two hours; there's probably no good reason for it to exist at all beyond garnering Alex Proyas a long-overdue paycheck. But here it is, and it's actually pretty fun.

It's a mystery what happened to the movie's reported $140 million budget. The CGI effects vacillate in quality from ho-hum to horrendous.

Not funny enough to laugh at, not pretty enough to look at, and not serious enough to care. Like, "what the devil were they thinking?" bad.

If one is going to make special effects the focus of a movie, they need to be good special effects, and that's not the case here. Proyas' ideas are never fully translated from imagination to screen.

It was jarring, distracting and hilarious to watch, almost like being in a very sandy fun house.

Gods of Egypt gets lost in its own budget, constantly shooting to outdo its visual grandeur but forgetting to lend it any depth. But there's a mad ambition at work.

If it wasn't all CGI, I would have said I hope they saved the sets for another, better movie.

[Gods of Egypt] wraps a cheesy storyline within yards of gaudy spectacle.

As bad movies go, this one at least is all-in on its badness.

It's tempting to dismiss Gods of Egypt as the most perfectly bad film I've ever seen. But that's not fair. It's perfectly itself - a bizarre, yet cohesive, construction.

Sometimes Gods of Egypt has fascinatingly go-for-broke visuals. Other times, 1997 Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush... glowers on his boat in space between breaks fighting chaos, as represented by a toothy cloud worm.
