‘Gods of Egypt’ Review
The basic is, it is what you thought it would be. Gods of Egypt is big and shiny and has some cool moments, but is marred by a ridiculous amount of CG and pageantry. Via DenofGeek.
Gods of Egypt often becomes overpowered by its attempt to create something so epic in scale that it makes it hard to appreciate its characters.
Gods of Egypt may not be the best introduction or primer to Egyptian mythology, but the obvious problems aside, it acts as fun, escapist fare that younger kids might enjoy. Older action fans may be more skeptical, and rightfully so, but they might have fun as long as they remember not to take things too seriously.
So if you are a huge fan of the era and its fantastic nature, check it out. But if it looks too ‘shiny’ to you, it kind of is.

Daredevil Season 2 Review (Spoiler Free)
The lucky guys over at DenofGeek got a chance to check out the second season of Daredevil (with Elektra and Punisher) and they thought it would be nice to share their thoughts with their readers. They were right.
The good news is that if you enjoyed the first season, Marvel’s Daredevil season 2 is a return to nearly everything that brought you into the fold in the first place. We have a perfectly cast core of leads, some extraordinary new characters (more on them in a minute), and a more cinematic look than some of Marvel Studios’ big screen efforts.
It’s not all fun and games, though. They do have a few minor complaints (read the rest over here) but overall, it sounds like the show is still on the right track.
