“Gods of Egypt”

-

(7 p.m., FREE): A defiant young mortal (Brenton Thwaites) forms an unlikely alliance with the powerful god Horus (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) to save the world from Set (Gerard Butler), the brutal god of darkness, in Alex Proyas’ 2016 fantasy that got royally roasted by critics for everything from its juvenile script to its not-very-special visual effects. The harshest criticism, however, was reserved for the casting of mostly white actors as Egyptian characters.
