The story revolves around Theseus (played by Henry Cavill), a mortal man chosen by the gods to lead a fight against the ruthless King Hyperion (played by Mickey Rourke). Hyperion, seeking to overthrow the gods and rule humanity, is in search of the powerful Epirus Bow, a weapon that can unleash the Titans and destroy Mount Olympus.
Theseus, guided by the oracle Phaedra (played by Freida Pinto) and aided by the skilled thief Stavros (played by Stephen Dorff) and the monk-like warrior Zeus (played by Luke Evans), sets out on a quest to stop Hyperion. Along the way, Theseus encounters the powerful and ethereal beings known as the Eternals, who serve the gods and possess unique abilities.
The climax of the film unfolds as Theseus and his allies engage in an epic battle against Hyperion’s forces, including monstrous creatures and the corrupt Oracle of Gaia (played by Isabel Lucas). The fight for the Epirus Bow becomes a struggle for the fate of humanity and the gods.
In a visually stunning sequence, Theseus confronts Hyperion, leading to a final showdown between mortal and tyrant. The gods, particularly Zeus, intervene in the conflict, showcasing their immense power.
The movie concludes with the resolution of the conflict, the triumph of good over evil, and the restoration of balance. Theseus emerges as a heroic figure, and the gods reaffirm their connection to humanity.
“Immortals” received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for its visuals and action sequences but criticism for its narrative and character development. The film’s distinctive visual style, influenced by director Tarsem Singh’s artistic approach, sets it apart as a visually engaging spectacle within the fantasy genre.
