About this movie

An epic adventure, Immortals is set eons after the Gods won their mythic struggle against the Titans, at a time when a new evil threatens the land. Academy Award®-nominee Mickey Rourke portrays King Hyperion, a tyrant who has amassed a blood-thirsty army in pursuit of the legendary Epirus Bow, a weapon of unimaginable power that can unleash the Titans and ultimately rain destruction on all mankind. The people are powerless to stop Hyperion...until a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill) comes forth as their only hope. This sweeping fantasy rooted in classic mythology features thrilling effects and action. Also starring Stephen Dorff, Isabel Lucas, Freida Pinto, and Academy Award®-nominee John Hurt.

Ratings and reviews

Poor acting, cheesy special effects and fight scenes (attempts to be like 300 but is just a really bad rip-off) and a rubbish story too. What was with the Toys R Us 'gold' plated armour that the gods were wearing too!? They looked more like power rangers... Why was Zeus cast a young guy with no beard as well? Not impressed at all.

To the people claiming this is good, and demanding a list as to why this movie is just so, so wrong, allow me... It claims to be Greek myth, for the idiots who don't know, the Greek myth this claims to be is Theseus and The Minotaur, but it's not... get it? It's fantasy and should be listed as that and not use any connections to Greek myth as it's painful to watch for anyone who knows the real story. Sure, if you're 12 and read comic books, or a 40 year old virgin, you're love it, as you have no idea.

Tries to play the 300 card but it's not in the same league. Someone should tell the director that filming scenes in caves and at night when they could be set outside or in the morning isn't artistic just annoying. If you want to make a visually impressive film then let people see the actors.
