Western mythology is adapted from a magical masterpiece

God Wars: The Eye of Power locks in ancient Egyptian mythology, a splendid chapter in the history of world civilization that cannot be ignored. The revenge story between Horus, the "god of the sky" and Seth, the "god of the desert" in ancient Egyptian mythology, is shockingly restored in the film.
One of the major points of interest is the conflict and contradiction of the three realms of man, God, and the underworld. As an ancient civilization, Chinese audiences will certainly not be unfamiliar with this, because Chinese mythology also has the characteristics of the coexistence of the three worlds of multi-god system and human gods and gods. It can be seen from the plot setting of this film that although the content of The Oriental and Western magic films is based on different cultural and religious systems, the conflict and opposition between God and God, man and god, destruction and redemption are unchanging themes. The classic mythological story provides a thick cultural background and sufficient box office guarantee for this type of film.
Another highlight of God Wars: Eyes of Power is the image of various monsters that break through imagination: the Sphinx with the Sphinx, the god of the underworld, Anubis, and the giant beast Chaos that devours the heavens and the earth. They may seem strange and bizarre, but they are all supported by myths and legends.
The most shocking and amazing thing is the mount of seth's hunters in the film, a black and a white two giant pythons, which rush to the mysterious ancient Egyptian palace with dragon-like sharp teeth and flames, rendering the mysterious atmosphere of ancient Egypt to the extreme.
The film's story is stunning, the character setting is exquisite, not conventional, and the modern expression and application of historical mythological themes add an intriguing background to the film.
