Exodus Gods and Kings not off to a great start. 50% on the ole Tomatoes

Ridley Scott hasn't made anything worth watching in a long time.

I will be watching this regardless of what the reviews say. Without reading any of them, I assume many are negative because of the perceived "white washing" of the movie, which I am literally incapable of caring less about.

Read a history book. People who throw around shite like they know history pisses me the frick off. The ptomelys were Greek. That started after Alexander took Egypt over in the 300s BC. The ptomelys were in charge until ceased conquered them in the mid 1st century BC.

Moses likely lived under Ramses 2, during the and 1200s BC. Almost 1000 before the Greek Pharos

Ridley Scott is one of the most overrated directors in Hollywood. He has been hit or miss for his entire career.

The director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven was the last good movie he has released.
