I saw an advanced screening of Immortals last week, because, yeah I am that important. I didn’t know the screening was going to be in 3D which I generally don’t do since I wear glasses and glasses on top of glasses SUCKS and gives me massive headaches. But I have to say, I didn’t get a headache from this movie. There really wasn’t a reason to be watching it in 3D. There just wasn’t enough “use” of the 3D gimmick to make it worth it. But enough about 3D. This movie was SO beautiful. If you like extremely HOT men scantily clad and sweaty then this is the movie for you. It has sex, violence and an epic story to boot. It is severely violent. I mean a few scenes for me were just too much. Mickey Rourke is so disgusting now. He really is no longer acting. He has just become a real life comic book villan. And he didn’t even put on a British accent for this one. He just sounds like himself. At times I have to be honest I think they just let him say whatever came to his mind. He is the bad guy in this film so he did a really good job because I could not have hated his character more. In this movie he is essentially playing the same exact character he played in Iron Man 2 minus the Russian accent. This movie is about an Ancient Greek myth so of course everyone has a British accent. As a Greek American I take slight offense at that. But the accents were WAY toned down and not horrible like in Troy. And they had a few scenes with ACTUAL Greek spoken. Over all the film is stunning and has something for men and women to enjoy. The acting is good and there is a decent story there. If you liked 300 you will seriously LOVE IMMORTALS!
