Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Horus and Hathor bicker constantly, but obviously love each other, even though they Cannot Spit It Out. | |

Cool Old Guy | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_17501df2 | comment |
Cool Old Guy: Ra, the Lord of Light. He's considerably older than the other gods, but he can still keep Apophis at bay and is powerful enough that Set needs the powers of four other gods just to survive one of his attacks and still isn't powerful enough to kill him. And at the end he grants Horus' wish to bring Bek and Zaya back to life. | |

"Well Done, Son" Guy: Many of Set's actions are to gain the approval of his father Ra who he sees as favoring his brother Osiris. This goes out the window when Set learns what Ra was planning for him. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: In Egyptian mythology, while he did kill Osiris and feud with Horus, Set wasn't necessarily outright evil; he played a pivotal role in fighting Apophis and stopping him from devouring Ra every night. In this film that duty is solely Ra’s, and when Set is given the position, he opts to let Apophis devour the Earth and the afterlife rather than protect them. | |

Everybody Hates Hades | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_2cfee88 | comment |
Everybody Hates Hades: Subverted. Anubis (while certainly monstrous) is depicted as being benevolent and helpful to the people who die and have to travel the Underworld, which is actually more in line with Egyptian mythology. He's also a fairly reasonable god when it comes down to it, being perfectly willing to barter with Hathor to buy Zaya's way into the afterlife. | |

Body to Jewel: Godly body parts turn into glowing jewels whenever Set removes them. Examples include Horus's eyes, Nephthys's wings, Thoth's brain, and Osiris's heart. They turn back into flesh-and-blood organs when returned. | |

| Gods of Egypt / int_32cb267a | comment |
Magical Negro: The most significant character played by a black actor is Thoth, who knows more than everyone else and is killed off the second he's no longer useful. Somewhat subverted in that he is an Insufferable Genius rather than being Closer to Earth. When he's been resurrected at the end of the film, he seems to have let go of his arrogance, however. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Horus takes back Egypt and saves the world from being destroyed, but his parents are dead and Hathor sent herself to what seems to be Hell by taking off the bracelet protecting her and giving it to Bek so he can find his wife in the afterlife. However, the film ends with Horus going to rescue her, implying that there's still hope for them to be reunited. Furthermore, Set and Osiris' deaths imply that Ra no longer has a viable replacement for his beleaguering duty to hold off Apophis, meaning either he'll have to find a new replacement or the world will again be in danger of Apophis once he perishes. Or that Horus would've to make the same sacrifice as Ra did in the future. | |

Combat Pragmatist: Set. He is never seen straight up fighting any other characters on equal ground. He uses underhanded means, such as killing Osiris with a surprise attack, using reflective shields to disorient Horus, etc to get the upper hand in fights. This is despite the fact that he supposed to be the strongest Earth-bound god in the setting. | |

All Your Powers Combined | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_5288f02 | comment |
All Your Powers Combined: Set takes body parts from other gods — Osiris' heart, Horus' eye, Thoth's brain and Nephthys' wings — and bonds them to his armor to gain their powers. It supposedly grants him dominion over the land, omniscience, wisdom, and protection from harm, but for the most part it's just to get him up to Ra's barge and give him enough power to withstand Ra's Sword Beam. These abilities may have had something to do with remaking the world in his image (hence why he picks those specific ones), but the film never goes into detail as to how that would play out. | |

Serqet, a primordial protection goddess considered among the most powerful, is reduced to a weak minion of Set (and is a generic skimpy-dressed human rather than a badass scorpion-taur). | |

Dark Is Not Evil: Anubis is the scariest of all the gods and the only one who doesn't assume a human appearance at any point in the movie. He is also kind and professional in his job of escorting the souls of the dead to their final judgment, and when Apophis threatens the world, immediately puts himself between the demon and the souls of the dead. | |

Jerkass Gods | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_73f7975f | comment |
Jerkass Gods: In general, all of the male gods (except for Osiris and Anubis) as well as the goddess Hathor, have shades of this. Horus starts off as pampered, arrogant and narcissistic, but grows out of it through the story. Set enslaves his followers and plans to destroy the world. Arguably Zig-Zagged with Ra, father of Osiris and Set, and king of all gods. When Horus calls him out on not caring about Set's evil actions, nor trying to stop him, Ra replies that Horus himself is no better (possibly on account of Horus' own Jerkass behaviour prior to Set's arrival and slaying of Osiris) and teaches Horus that he, Ra, has more important things to do — namely, to hold off the monster Apophis and prevent it from devouring the world every night. However, when Set comes to Ra, angrily calling him about the mistreatment he received as The Unfavorite son while Osiris got it all, Ra explains that it was because he wanted Set to succeed him as the world's protector against Apophis. Understandably, Set is infuriated and wants none of it; Ra having failed miserably to comprehend Set's feelings, never thinking he would perceive it as mistreatment, AND never explained himself before all was said and done either. Then, after Set is defeated and order is restored to Egypt, Ra concedes Horus' wish and resurrects Bek and Zaya, showing that he's not so uncaring after all. Thoth and Hathor have shades of this as well, and Bek holds the opinion that all gods are this. Hathor is heavily implied to make her Heroic Sacrifice in order to subvert this trope and change Bek's mind. It works. It could well be said that the movie is actually a deconstruction of this trope. Aside from Set, who plays the trope straight, all the gods who show these tendencies during the film are only hampered by them and either visibly grow out of them entirely or at least accept the need to put the largest part of it aside in order to help save Egypt. | |

Charm Person: Hathor's powers include the ability to make any being in creation obey her will — be it man, woman, god or beast — so long as they can hear her voice and make eye contact. Only True Love can make a person immune to it - and this even includes Horus, whose true love is Hathor herself. | |

Light Is Good: Ra, willing to forgive everything and endure an eternity of loneliness to make sure his world survives.

Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: Set was originally a loyal son, loving brother, and great warrior that Horus admired. A thousand years of being stuck in the harsh desert as the perceived unfavorite, denied a family, and to be told he was supposed to take over the lonely duty of fighting Apophis drove him to ultimately decide to destroy the world and remake it in his image. | |

The Power of the Sun: Ra, naturally. Bek has to stand in Horus's shadow to avoid getting burned while in Ra's presence, and has to hide below deck when Ra unleashes his true power lest he be incinerated. When Ra powers up, he grows twice his normal size and his body is surrounded by a fiery corona. | |

Physical God: All of the gods in the film are physical beings yet are distinguished from humans by considerable height, liquid gold instead of blood, a variety of powers, and in some cases being connected to the element they represent. For instance, Set is connected to the desert and as long as it exists he can draw strength from it. Getting rid of the desert would weaken him. They're also mortal, though they have lifespans ten times that of a human. | |

| Gods of Egypt / int_bfa7a7e7 | comment |
God of the Dead: Anubis, natch, of the scary-looking and stickler-for-rules variety, but not at all without empathy and very protective of the dead and the afterlife in general, to the point of interposing himself between Apophis and the dead when Apophis attempts to devour the afterlife. | |

ZigZagged | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_c3db1619 | comment |
Arguably Zig-Zagged with Ra, father of Osiris and Set, and king of all gods. When Horus calls him out on not caring about Set's evil actions, nor trying to stop him, Ra replies that Horus himself is no better (possibly on account of Horus' own Jerkass behaviour prior to Set's arrival and slaying of Osiris) and teaches Horus that he, Ra, has more important things to do — namely, to hold off the monster Apophis and prevent it from devouring the world every night. However, when Set comes to Ra, angrily calling him about the mistreatment he received as The Unfavorite son while Osiris got it all, Ra explains that it was because he wanted Set to succeed him as the world's protector against Apophis. Understandably, Set is infuriated and wants none of it; Ra having failed miserably to comprehend Set's feelings, never thinking he would perceive it as mistreatment, AND never explained himself before all was said and done either. Then, after Set is defeated and order is restored to Egypt, Ra concedes Horus' wish and resurrects Bek and Zaya, showing that he's not so uncaring after all. | |

Large and in Charge: Ra is father and king of the gods, and he grows large enough to tower over his already-towering children when drawing on his full power. In general, gods are a couple feet taller than humans and rule over them. | |

Barred from the Afterlife | |
| Gods of Egypt / int_e7f9c214 | comment |
Barred from the Afterlife: Initially, Osiris makes it so that this is averted by allowing anyone into the afterlife regardless of wealth or station in life. Set, however, changes this once he usurps his brother's rule. Under Set's new law, only those with enough wealth can pass through onto the afterlife, and he deliberately refuses to allow anyone but those most loyal to him the wealth necessary to fulfill this condition. Those that can't pay have their souls destroyed upon being judged. In the end, Horus changes the law to have souls judged by their character, not their wealth. | |

Mundane Utility: At one point, Hathor uses her bracelet to escape from Set. She takes it off, letting herself be dragged away from the mortal world, then puts it back on and pops back at another place. The experience is not the least bit pleasant, but it's "better than running". | |

| Gods of Egypt / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: Hathor talks about having a dark past. In Egyptian religion, Hathor was originally considered to be the alter ego of Sekhmet, Goddess of war and destruction. This changed over time and the two became separate deities. It is noteworthy that when Hathor uses her powers, her eyes become orange/yellow, which is the color of the eyes of a lioness, the animal associated with Sekhmet. | |
