Immortals (2011)

Immortals (2011), directed by Tarsem Singh, is a visually striking action-fantasy film that blends Greek mythology with high-octane battle sequences. Starring Henry Cavill, Mickey Rourke, Freida Pinto, and Luke Evans, the film is set in a fantastical version of ancient Greece, where the gods, mortals, and titans are locked in a brutal conflict. While the movie received praise for its impressive visuals and unique aesthetic, it was criticized for its thin plot and uneven character development.
The story revolves around Theseus (Henry Cavill), a mortal chosen by Zeus (Luke Evans) to lead a fight against King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke), a ruthless tyrant who is on a rampage across Greece. Hyperion seeks to unleash the Titans, ancient enemies of the gods, from their prison beneath Mount Tartarus to destroy both humanity and the Olympian gods. Armed with the legendary Epirus Bow, Hyperion plans to dominate the world, and it’s up to Theseus, with the help of a prophetic oracle Phaedra (Freida Pinto) and a group of allies, to stop him.
Theseus, driven by revenge after Hyperion murders his mother, is initially reluctant to believe in the gods or his supposed destiny. However, as Hyperion’s forces advance, Theseus rises as a leader of men and a defender of the gods’ will. Zeus and the other Olympians, including Poseidon (Kellan Lutz), secretly intervene from above, watching Theseus’ progress while adhering to a rule forbidding them from directly assisting humans in the conflict. The final confrontation takes place at Mount Tartarus, where Theseus and his army face off against Hyperion, while the gods battle the newly released Titans.
