As a power-mad king razes ancient Greece in search of a legendary weapon, a heroic young villager rises up against him in a thrilling quest as timeless as it is powerful.
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.

Stunningly choreographed fight scenes, Greek mythology, a love story,
drama and a good looking cast; an interesting mix that will thrill all
movie goers alike. Freida Pinto (from Slumdog Millionaire fame) looks
sensual as the oracle Phaedra and Mickey Rourke looks absolutely
villainous as King Hyperion. Don’t believe us? Check out the trailer
