Review: Immortals

I was very late past release date seeing this film...but at least I got out to see one!

I enjoyed Immortals more than I thought I would. The previews looked exciting, and the film lived up to my expectations. The visuals were stunning, the CGI awesome, and the acting turned out to be more than competent and up to the task.

Henry Cavil and Luke Evans carried the movie as they deftly and believably carried their parts of Theseus and Zeus, respectively. Aside from two players, the supporting cast of Freida Pinto, Isabel Lucas, John Hurt, Kellan Lutz and company really did a great job in their roles. The only two I didn't like were Stephen Dorff (as the hero's sidekick) and Mickey Rourke (as King Hyperion). These two actors just felt miscast and uncomfortable in their roles.

I am glad I was able to catch this film while it was still in theaters. It'll still look great on DVD, but this one is definitely to be watched on the big screen.

If you still have it in your area theaters, I recommend this sword and sandal offering.

Immortals is definitely a buyer!
