Strange there's no thread to this. Saw it last night and it was pretty good. Not as good as 300 but still worth going to see on a big screen. The Gods (the ones in gold in the trailer) were the best part, as when they kick ass, it's fast and bloody and AWESOME. Plus, 2 stunners to gaze at.



The 3D came through ok in a few scenes but wouldn't make or break your viewing enjoyment.
Worst part: Steven Dorf, who made no attempt at a regional/historical accent. Just sounded like a guy from L.A. Even Rourke got somethin of a decent dialect.



“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.”
