Immortals is a big, splashy, eyeful of a movie that stars Mickey Rourke as the brutal and bloodthirsty King Hyperion, who along with his Heraklion army are tramping across Greece searching for the lost Bow of Epirus.
If the King nabs that invincible Bow, he can overthrow the Gods of Olympus and then rule the world.
It appears nothing can stop the king’s mission…until a stonemason named Theseus (Henry Cavill) vows to avenge the death of his mother in one of Hyperion‘s raids.
Naturally, it’s game on to stop the king at all costs.
Jack and Jill is another wacky Adam Sandler comedy, but this time Jack Sadelstein (Sandler), is a successful advertising executive in Los Angeles with his wife Erin (Katie Holmes) and kids.
Each year at Thanksgiving his twin sister Jill (also Sandler) descends on his home and drags a heap of baggage with her. Jill pretty much twists Jack and his life into a pretzel.
On the upside, Sandler looks oddly great in drag.
J. Edgar is Director Clint Eastwood’s exploration of J. Edgar Hoover, the first head of the FBI, who held the position for nearly 50 years.
The controversial top cop is played by Leonardo DiCaprio and the movie examines both the public and private life of the man, who was able to make people quake with fear, while commanding respect.
