Clash of the Titans (2010)

 
Plot?
Perseus is the son Zeus, the king of oceans. Hades, ruler of the underworld is scheming to take over the World and rule it. Perseus must stop Hades, discovering his powers in the process.

The good:
  • The CGI is cool, when seen in 2D
  • Some eye-popping visuals and good action scenes
  • Sam Worthington takes on the mantle of the I-save-the-world-action-hero flexing his muscles much to our delight
  • The fight scenes to capture Medusa are very good, as we get good CGI as well as some character development
  • The rising of the Kraken at the end makes the ticket price worth it for the eye-popping CGI
The bad:
  •  Has a jaded look almost throughout
  • More focus is on the action scenes and CGI, but the pace of the movie is almost dragging

My Say:
I have already read the 'Percy Jackson' series of books...and to watch such a grim World on celluloid was tough for me. But as a no-brainer action flick, this movie sure is watchable.However, it would be good see Worthington with more hair on his head...it's not that bad to grow hair Worthington :).

IMDB 5.9  *** Rotten Tomatoes 28% fresh

My score:7/10
