The 411 by Maria 
OK..this was the second time I saw The Immortals and the second time was much better.  The first time, we said, before we comment, we should see it again!

Theseus played by Cavill is his mother's son. He will do what he can to protect her but when she is cut down right in front of him, he takes revenge and do what he can to stop King Hyperion played by Mickey Rourke. Chosen by the Gods to stop the powerful, evil, bloodthirsty Hyperion who is on a mission to be the most powerful of all the world. Hyperion seeks the Bow of Epirus which will allow him to overthrow the Gods of Olympus. The Gods are not to interfere with man but do.  The future of humanity will be dependent on Theseus according to the Oracle Phaedra who is played by the stunning (Freida Pinto).  



Well, lets see where to begin. Personally, I wasn't bored. It just never went were I wanted it to go.  The fight scenes the few that there are were nicely choreographed, the death scenes not overly bloody.  Since it was the producers of 300, I was expecting, some great fight scenes, memorable dialogue and some beefcake. Well, I got the beefcake, the fight scenes didn't have me oohhhing and the dialogue, well, not much to report. Nothing stuck with me.


Everything was either under or over acted but I did love Mickey Rourke's voice. He is totally the evil villain and his costumes cracked me up especially the Venus fly trap looking helmet. 

I was excited to see Kellen Lutz, (Emmett Cullen from Twilight) but he looked like a way too gay Greek God with his golden ear muffs.

The only scenes I remember was the less than lusty sex scene with the Oracle and Theseus, oh and the scene where she gives him water from her mouth. My husband and I both cringed. 
On another note, I had no idea Greece was so cliffy. 

If you like Greek History, bloody fight scenes, hunky men with contoured abs, this is for you.
