Is director Tarsem Singhs Immortals good enough to earn a place in the pantheon of great mythical epic movies?

It kicked off with the double disappointment of Nic Cage starrersSeason Of The WitchandDrive Angry 3D.

Jason Statham then failed to brighten things up inKiller Elite.

And then theresImmortals, which is arguably the worst of them all.

Anyway, as I settled down to watch it, my hopes were high.

Then suddenly, there are loud noises.

Theres some nonsensical imagery, and Mickey Rourke is shouting too.

At which point the film spirals rapidly downhill.

Its frustrating that very few movies that feature the Greek gods ever seem to get their depiction right.

The whole film feels like a wasted opportunity, which promised so much and delivered nothing.
