Immortals

Synopsis: Aeons after the Gods won their struggle against the Titans, a new evil emerges. Power-crazy King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) declares war against humanity. Amassing a bloodthirsty army of soldiers disfigured by his own hand, Hyperion scorches Greece in search of the legendary Epirus Bow, a weapon of unimaginable power forged in the heavens by Ares. He who possesses this bow can unleash the Titans, who have been imprisoned deep within the walls of Mount Tartaros and hungers for revenge. In the king's hands, the bow would rain destruction upon mankind and annihilate the Gods but ancient law says the Gods cannot intervene in man's conflict. They remain powerless to stop Hyperion until a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill) emerges. Chosen by Zeus, Theseus must save his people from Hyperion and his hordes. Rallying a band of fellow outsiders - including visionary priestess Phaedra (Freida Pinto) and cunning slave Stavros (Stephen Dorff) - he will not stand to watch his homeland fall to ruin.

Boring plot, boring actions, boring graphics. Everything about this movie just seem so uninteresting. The costume design of the Gods seem wrong, the matrix style fighting scenes seems boring. Character development is non-existence. All in all, this movie is a utter failure.
