The Immortals: a terrific tale; gruesome filled, adrenaline action packed and has stunningly beautiful visuals.
It delivers the story of young greek: Theseus. The son of a religious peasant woman and possibly the mighty God: Poseidon.
Starring John Hurt as the narrator of this epic war legend, with his sincere God-like voice he tells the story of one brave mans rise (Henry Cavil) against the terrifying King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) who wishes to release the imprisoned deadly Titans against the world and to defeat the Almighty Zeus (Luke Evans)
In order to do this, the story involves characters in a race against time to find the most powerful weapon on Earth: The Epirus Bow. With this, man can either rule or destroy the World.
I went to view this film at the "Vue" Cinema at the Lowery Centre in Salford Quays. My partner and I had decided it was time to test out the much talked about film with anticipation to compare it with the seemingly attractive trailers we had already previewed.
This trailer can be viewed in my last blog.
We decided to watch the film in 3D and I think this has benefit my opinion making on the film greatly; as many people watched it in HD Digital Viewing I don't think that the audience thought the film was visually that great. Whereas in 3D it really compliments the Movie. It was outstanding to watch, there was so much depth and detail to observe.
The talent of each performer was also incredible to watch; with Mickey Rourke playing the type cast bad guy trying to take over the world and John Hurt as a typical well educated form- the couple of well known actors did an amazing job playing each role to perfection!
Then, there's drop dead gorgeous: Henry Cavill. Usually seen as the sidekick character he finally makes the main front character: Theseus. The hero of our story and I think for all the people attracted to Men...the one we all check out; his character is strong hearted, full of courage and has an amazing physique to show. And now, mentioned before hand: the sidekick characters. A long range list of actors from Luke Evans to Isabel Lucas also star in the movie.
These are pretty much the 'bare bones' of the film and as some people may read this review but may have not seen the film, I've not going to give you every little detail which makes up the 'flesh' of the Film. THAT is something you have to do yourself.
The action isn't over done, the violence isn't too much and the "intimate" scenes are just right!
This film would be great for guys in general, the average of adolescents and all those myth-loving geeks out there. So, see the film & enjoy it!
