Theseus is a mortal man chosen by Zeus to lead the fight against the ruthless
King Hyperion, who is on a rampage across Greece to obtain a weapon that can
destroy humanity.
Storyline: Eons after the
Gods won their mythic struggle against the Titans, a new evil threatens the
land. Mad with power, King Hyperion (Mickey Rourke) has declared war against
humanity. Amassing a bloodthirsty army of soldiers disfigured by his own
hand, Hyperion has scorched Greece in search of the legendary Epirus Bow, a
weapon of unimaginable power forged in the heavens by Ares. Only he who
possesses this bow can unleash the Titans, who have been imprisoned deep
within the walls of Mount Tartaros since the dawn of time and thirst for
revenge. In the king's hands, the bow would rain destruction upon mankind
and annihilate the Gods. But ancient law dictates the Gods must not
intervene in man's conflict. They remain powerless to stop Hyperion...until
a peasant named Theseus (Henry Cavill) comes forth as their only hope.
Secretly chosen by Zeus, Theseus must save his people
from Hyperion and his hordes. Rallying a band of fellow outsiders-including
visionary priestess Phaedra (Freida Pinto) and cunning slave Stavros
(Stephen Dorff)-one hero will lead the uprising, or watch his homeland fall
into ruin and his Gods vanish into legend.

Review:
Author: TheChampReview from
United States: When I saw
the previews for this film i was underwhelmed and brushed it under the rug,
disturbed at them trying to top 300 after Clash of the Titans came out. I must
admit i was pleasantly surprised. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this
film from beginning to end. Tarsem knew exactly what he wanted and its evident
in every shot. The cinematography was magnificent, the set design was superb and
the costumes were just gorgeous. The fight scenes were definitely impressive and
left me mumbling "yeah" and "that what im talking about" under my breath.
Henry Cavill did a great job as our hero. He had a strong presence that makes me
anxious to see him as the new Superman. Mickey Rourke is always a good villain
but i must say his performance topped any other he played as an antagonist. Luke
evans brought a power to the screen as Zeus and besides being superhot, Kellan
Lutz, dud a good job as Poseidon giving more depth than he does in the Twilight
Saga. Freida Pinto and Isabel Lucas are both gorgeous and commanded the screen
as our two leading ladies.
Charleg and Vlas Parlapanides did an excellent job writing the film. There were
no cheesy lines or inane dialogue. Everything that happened in the film had a
purpose. I was very impressed with the pacing if the film. Being only 98
minutes, it wasn't too short or too long to do what it needed to do.
My favorite moments was seeing the Gods take a more active role in the film.
When they appear its not for show or exposition. Whenever you see a God you
better believe there will be hell pay.
Overall, this movie is a wonderfully stylized, Greek fantasy that definitely
will leave you in your seat saying "Oh My God". I definitely recommend seeing
thus movie because it's probably one of the best films of the year. Tarsem has
definitely made a fan out of me
