Clash of the Titans

Clash of the Titans is a remake of the 1981 smash hit and offers a new and revamp look to the ground breaking film. The story revolves around a Demi-god (Half mortal half god) named Perseus (played by Sam Worthington) who upon witnessing the death of his family (well adopted) at the hands of the god of the underworld - Hades. With the help of a handful Greek soldiers, Perseus and his marry men embark on a journey of which he will encounter Giant demons, the legendary Medusa in his quest to avenge the death of his family.

I AM BEOWULF

If you're a fan of sea monsters, greek mythology and beardy looking warriors, then you've come the right place cause this movie does deliver that up front. The action is fast paced and you get the sense of an adventure movie ala Lord Of the Rings as they proceed on their quest. As the story progresses our hero encounters more foes and more problems but being the son of Zeus he occasionally gets a special handout from dad to which he rejects at first but we all know he'll use his gifts sooner or later.

Perseus always felt safe with his friend from Fraggel Rock

Not that I want to be overly critical, but this movie for me was a bit of a letdown. I'm a big Sam Worthington fan (especially after Terminator 4) but Perseus just transforms from an anti-hero character to just being plain annoying really takes the cake. The movie is fairly disjointed (if you actually care about the storyline) and what starts out as a journey to meet and destroy the god of the underworld slowly turns into National Lampoon's Vacation series. I think 15 minutes into the film I was already half bored and having flashbacks when I had to sit through Twilight: New Moon constantly reminding myself I would never let this happen again. I'm sure some people will slate me for not knowing my greek mythology or not seeing that it's just an action film, but to put it plain and simple I thought it kinda sucked.

Also another thing to note :- Being there all excited for this film and especially it being in 3D, I can only hope that you don't experience the same disappointment as I did when I discovered that there were HUGE ASS subtitles across the movie screen blocking half of my view and also being in 3D!

Beware of this movie young man...

So if I'm going to give an honest a opinion, if you have no disregard for storylines and where it's going then I'm sure you'll be fine with this movie. You probably should just settle for a 2D movie cause I don't really think 3D is worth your money. If you're none of the above then stay far away from it.
