The concept is not new (what is these days?) - shades of Highlander, except without Duncan McLeod. Charlize Theron does (IMO) a bang up job as the leader of a group of 'Immortals' who for centuries have been battling evil around the World. The Scythian (Charlize) is given a very human side and has for a millennia carried a heavy burden on her shoulders and in her heart. The group of four Immortals find a 'new' one and this has a profound event on Charlize - on several levels. Bad guy (played by a young nerd) wants to 'save the world' and, of course, make billions by extracting their DNA. Ending was interesting, and left this open to a sequel. Candidly? Pretty darn good two hours worth of entertainment - have no idea why some give this a 'one' star. Give it a go.
