Fighting Olympus

I had no idea I was going to be watching action with greek mythology! I also have an interest in cults and the mysterious. This movie had such a unique story line and writing and actor performances. There were many moments that I was thrilled by watching and also many various moments that the action and dialogue and plot kept me wondering what was going to happen next. I think the writing was unique, original, and also exquisite for a movie like this one. I hope to see a follow up to it and I think the director and film team also have a lot of talent for and indie movie. I'll also look to see the actors in other roles they'll play.

I will give it this. It was a different take on Greek mythology. The acting was third rate at best. The technical was high school. Sorry.... I don't get the great reviews this is receiving. I must be out of touch. I was cringing at the lines delivered by the actors and actresses. It was only my incredulity that took me to the end. Honestly...this is one of the worst films given the best reviews I have ever seen. I am only going to give it two stars because whomever wrote the script deserves some credit for the uniqueness of the content and the overall theme. I encourage all students of film to watch it to understand what not to do.

I enjoy watching films that tells a fantastical mythological tale. "Fighting Olympus" is compelling and imaginative, and filled with unexpected plot twists that keeps the audience captivated. Being a huge fan of Greek Mythology, I love seeing Hades, Zeus, Athena, and Medusa in action in the realm of the Gods. Leslie Jones shines as Rucker, a tough and compassionate ex-cop determined to find his kidnapped brother, Biddle (Devinair Mathis) and enters the lion's den - a ruthless cult based on the Greek pantheon. The ensemble cast was game, and made this distopian world interesting.

The set design of this film is impressive. This movie has tons of characters and plenty of action. Directed, written and produced by Julian Hampton, who managed to made the movie look big and cinematic, with wonderfully choreographed fight scenes. If you are looking for an entertaining film that will take you to another realm, look no further.

Yo, check it- This ain't just your regular bang-bang action flick-it's got way more goin' on. The story's a trip, full of surprises that hit you from left field. But hold up, gotta give mad props to the stunt and fight crews! Those hand-to-hand brawls? They're off the chain! You can tell tons of sweat and tears went into makin' those scenes pop. Two big thumbs up for real! Gather up your crew, 'cause it's time to dive into Fighting Olympus! This flick's gonna have y'all on the edge of your seats, trust me. It's got that action-packed punch and a storyline that'll keep everyone hooked. So, what are you waiting for? Round up your squad, grab some snacks, and make a movie night outta this!

This film has a large cast, very good lighting and some production values that set it apart from most low budget films. But it is the unique story that makes it watchable. At first, it looked like a standard cop drama, terrorist story, but then it took a turn into a cult world that was unexpected. Sometimes the story wavered between being a dark, serious drama, and a comic romp, but it had a very interesting premise that kept it watchable. There was some exposition to explain the world we were seeing that I thought was unneeded. But the lead actors, playing brothers in the film, were both likeable and we rooted for them. Haley Jackson as Medusa was breathtakingly gorgeous.
