Movies that feel likeImmortals (2011)

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.

If you loved Immortals, the closest films we have are Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008), The Old Guard (2020) and A Chinese Ghost Story (1987). All three share Immortals' dreamlike and kinetic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is A Writer's Odyssey (2021).
