Review of Immortals (2011) by Alx93 — 24 May 2016
With a budget of 75 million dollars, with a biceps ala Henry Cavill, the film has made somewhat good job, making profit of 200 million dollars.
The story: the film is inspired by Greek mythology, but it's somewhat adjusted to the director's vision that saw too much manga.
According to the film, in the early universe they were immortals, only that they were split and they beat each other. Olympian gods have become winners, and the losers became Titans, who were huddled in a cage with bars stuffed into their mouths, growling forever.
Only a plump king, Hyperion plans to release the Titans, so he organized an army of heracliens wearing masks like those of executioners inspired by the medieval dungeons and torture rooms and go to seek his bow Epirus, a super- weapon of mass destruction which is able to reproduce the molecular beam arrows with balls of mass and strength, able to make holes through walls.
And so begins the story of Theseus and the mother of the devotees who often go on to bisericuta.Tezeu was driven by lower Zeus, disguised as an old man catches him there ..... invasion, Theseus is cornered and his mother is killed in Hyperion his eyes by telling him he looks like hell.
And as in any genre film, Theseus and his friends are enslaved, but with a oracles-virgin, escaping the clutches heraclienilor.
One of the deserting soldiers city, get to endure the ordeal that he suffered from Hyperion just to feel useful and he, kissing him in the ass.
Zeus, meanwhile, tells the other gods that are not allowed to intervene.
We arrive at the scene where Theseus grab bow and kills the Minotaur .... actually a masked man, then the final battle will take place at Mount Tartarus.
Phaedra, although a virgin oracle, **** easily with lightning first man who comes along.
The film is trying to tell you something, the idea of free will, mature has several aftershocks, but a bit superficial forms.
Ironically, although immortal, in the final battle, all gods die.
Overview: the effects are pretty good, but sepia, as in 300, it's too exaggerated, designed to make you feel on the thirteenth century. Olympic gods are not those deities dressed in white tunics, dancing merrily on a mountain with clouds, but some models are ........ playboy calendar, dressed in golden armor, including Zeus which is a few tens of thousands years younger, virile and Athena, goddess of wisdom which alone do not give me the feeling, but a pitzi in playboy, which has less and babardeste with Zeus, who was his father.
True, the scene in which Poseidon into the sea full of oil's millions, believing that if you bathe, Zeus will not suspect anything, though ... do not know if Greece were tsunamis thirteenth century.
Actors John Hurt and Mickey Rourke in the role of Santa's were about the only ones who played pretty well.
Rating: 4.5 indulgently.
