Soundtrack: 1 star
Storyline: -1 star
First, an explanation for my rating. I have a habit of watching movies. I never watch movies rashly with the trailer as the starting point. Most of them are measured by the production team and actors. What attracted me to "Immortals" was the production team of "Spartan 300 Warriors". In terms of the overall CG special effects, "Immortals" is enough to bring a strong visual impact. The 3D effect adds a lot of points to the film, but compared to "Iron Armored Steel Fist" and "TINTIN" in the same period still lacked some shocking power, but the rumbling soundtrack added a lot of extra points to the cool tone of the picture. Even so, it still couldn't make up for the weakness of the plot.
In the whole story structure, "Immortals" and "Spartan 300 Warriors" have similar routines. They are both based on the background of the weak people resisting the evil monarch. The difference is that "300" is based on 24k pure warriors. , and "Immortals" is not clear.
The title "Immortals" literally translates to "gods", which at least gives the audience a hint that the gods on Mount Olympus are the protagonists, but in the development of the story, we can be sure that Theseus is the real protagonist, and the gorgeous The celestial gods of Li only have a role in wiping their ass when Theseus is alone, and the "gods" are not only gorgeously dressed, but also like rookies.

In the final battle, I think the audience was expecting Theseus to regain Epilos' bow and defeat Hynepolis, but when the Titans were released, the gods would return. Gorgeous debut, but the good times don't last long. The most disappointing thing is that although they are gods, they have no troops, no heavenly generals, only Zeus and four sons and daughters all appear. Under the attack of the brutal Titan, Zeus' sons and daughters all appeared The army was annihilated, and Zeus had to flee in a panic with the corpse of his daughter Athena. And the screen jumped, Theseus reversed Heinpolis and finally killed him. Before the warrior who fought on behalf of the grassroots was dying, he was recalled to the heaven by Zeus, and finally had a place, leaving his prophetic wife and Son in the womb.
Years later, the son of Theseus grew up, and Zeus still returned to the world with the appearance of an old man. It seemed that he was going to summon the son of Theseus to fight against the Titans, and the son of Theseus saw in the illusion that the father in the heaven was fighting against the Titans. The screen jumps and the movie ends.
I want to ask, what kind of bloody plot is this, Athena Poseidon died like this, so Theseus got his place? Or maybe the director shot the film full of blood and couldn't finish it and was finally cut by the publisher? Well, even if it exists as a commercial film, it must be paving the way for a sequel, and this result is obviously more acceptable.
But the film is still very impressive. The scene where Theseus stood on the doorway to cheer up the soldiers when the army of Hynepolis broke through the city gate is the most memorable to me, at least this part is still closely related to the theme of the film. The main theme of the film is still fighting spirit and faith. From the gods of the heavens to the mortal Theseus, it can be summed up in one sentence: My death is trivial.
