Immortals (2011)


Immortal (2011)
Synopsis:
Visionary director Tarsem Singh (The Cell, The Fall) and producers Gianni Nunnari (300), Mark Canton (300) and Ryan Kavanaugh (The Fighter) unleash an epic tale of treachery, vengeance and destiny in Immortals, a stylish and spectacular 3-D adventure. As a power-mad king razes ancient Greece in search of a legendary weapon, a heroic young villager rises up against him in a thrilling quest as timeless as it is powerful. The brutal and bloodthirsty King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) and his murderous Heraklion army are rampaging across Greece in search of the long lost Bow of Epirus. With the invincible Bow, the king will be able to overthrow the Gods of Olympus and become the undisputed master of his world. With ruthless efficiency, Hyperion and his legions destroy everything in their wake, and it seems nothing will stop the evil king’s mission. As village after village is obliterated, a stonemason named Theseus (Henry Cavill) vows to avenge the death of his mother in one of Hyperion’s raids. When Theseus meets the Sybelline Oracle, Phaedra (Freida Pinto), her disturbing visions of the young man’s future convince her that he is the key to stopping the destruction. With her help, Theseus assembles a small band of followers and embraces his destiny in a final desperate battle for the future of humanity.

Everyone has been dreaming of immortality ever since ancient moments ago especially the ancient Rulers and Kings.
Endlessly conquering the land and enjoying the unlimited wealth and fame and power.
That is what we claimed as GREED.
Epic adventures and fights emerge due to these immortality craps.
Practically for a mortal to be an immortal is a joke unless you're the chosen one. (Definitely bestow with great responsibility. Sounds like stress to me.)
What's so good being immortality?
Pros:

  1. Never die.
  2. Usually bestowed with great power to turn the tide around.
  3. Forever young.
  4. Watching enemies die while you are alive.
  5. The mortals treat you as god.
Cons:
  1. Watching everyone beside you die one by one due to growing age, friends and families.
  2. Alone being stuck in the wheel of time.
  3. End up everyone even the close one scared of you.
  4. You will gradually fail to appreciate life because you doesn't know what is death.
  5. The fear of dying is greater within you because you never knew what is death compare to mortals who accepted the fate of the life cycle.
So, again, what's so good being immortals?
Yes, you get the power, the wealth and the never ending life.
But that is only for a short term.
How will you feel after 10,000years of being alive? Already enjoyed and being numb with the wealth and power repeatedly. Definitely the word boring will pop up from your head.
By that time you will probably wanted death so much to end up this miserable repeating life (no-life is what we called nowadays).
We as human should always accept the fate of life cycle.


Okay, okay....
Back to the movie, Immortals (2011).
It will be slashing its way to the screen by 11th of November 2011. >>> 11.11.11  (Nice figures ^^)
From the producers of "300", "This is Spartaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!"
I guess I will be watching a 70% CG movie again this time.
The best thing about this movie is that even Gods need a hero.
Ever heard of that? Me neither.

Anyway, looking forward to this whack and slash movie in the screening soon.
Mark your calender with a cross slash and wait for the show to be on screen on 111111.

Peace!
