Review of Immortals (2011) by Jorad — 12 Nov 2011
Mediocrity at its finest. Let's call this the poor man's 300. Nothing about this was exceptional at all. It started pretty solid, but faded as it went along. There wasn't a single stand-out moment in this film for me.
The acting was mediocre, the characters were all very one dimensional (I didn't care for any of the characters) and poorly developed characters like the monk (yes he is literally just called "the monk") serve quite literally no purpose in this film.
Even the action, the true focus of the film wasn't up to scratch. Apart from the battle with the gods (which looked awesome, but wasn't enough of it), none of the battles caught my eye. Infact, there was one point in the film where I fell asleep momentarily due to sheer boredom, which has only ever happened to me in one other film (funnily enough, it was Clash of the Titans).
Nothing about this film is great or even good. Literally everything is either "meh" or just plain bad. If you want to see the film and develop your own view of it then by all means be my guest because you may enjoy it, but I didn't.
One final word of advice: Do NOT waste your money on the 3D. Go 2D or not at all.
