Immortals

Henry😍

As a procurer of Greek mythology media I enjoyed this movie. It’s not bogged down with things like logic; just pretty men and cool Greek concepts. Also has that charm of 2010’s movies that makes it feel like a better film than it actually is.

Tbh I watched if for Henry Cavill and wasn’t disappointed😍 I didn’t get the plot but I also don’t follow Greek mythology. It’s a bad ass movie but I don’t think I’d watch again.

Reminded me of something out of the 70s with its small but expensive production. Henry Cavill acted to a higher level than expected, and took his character to another level. I loved the dialogue because of its book likeness. I could imagine great figures of fantasy. Compared to what we are given though, it's underwhelming. I wasn't expecting big CGI like in 'Clash of the Titans' but I could see the vision, and storywise it sort of helped keeping it somewhat grounded. Started with some intrigue, carried it in the form of Rouke (who plays himself), and then aimlessly shoots off in 90 directions. Everything just needed more juice.

skip. zzzzzz

Like too many Tarsem films, the writing is not up to his gifts from the very start, so there’s no way for him to make a good film. It’s beautiful to look at, though
