Clash of the Titans anyone?

[V2NR 3.0]

Its a remake and a very well known story, so obviously it's predictable. Most good vs evil, mythology stories are predictable.

While i tend to partially agree with you, thats the point of the matter. Its not ought to be predictable. Did you see the part where Medusa's head was cut off ? - How he looked in the shield for the reflection ? - This was in the old version as well.

too long? I guess you never watched the sci-fi epic classic DUNE or even the extended versions of Lord of the Rings

Off course i saw the movies you mentioned and enjoyed every moment of it. The scenery, the epic moments, the mood created by the director, the music which blends with the story-line is absolutely brilliant.

ok and yes the graphics didnt look shitty in the preview

Im not clear what youre saying here - seems like youre ageeing that the graphics are not up to par...but your language is a bit clouded.

Graphical failures - the huge scorpians, the flying horses, the sea creature, the Gods in the sky....shall i go on and on ?

Over all i give the movie a 2 out of 5 ranking. Did some searches and the critics have almost the same sentiments: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/clash_o ... =creamcrop

So there, you can take my reviews on the future !

Errm..it's an epic story..the details won't change if they remade it a million times

That's like expecting to watch a movie about the events of WW2 and expecting the allies to NOT win

well actually the original story of perseus doesn't have any giant scorpions nor the cracken, these were all invented by Ray Harryhausen in 1981. Although i did enjoy the movie, they could have been a bit more original, why copy the copier.

[shady23]

Nah it wasn't all that. Just get the feeling they tried to cram everything into just under 2 hours.

The special effects were good yeah. The acting of that Perseus dude, can't remember his name, well, it just sucks.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ so the graphics were good then!

I think the "looking at Medusa's reflection in the shield" was part of the original story.

Oh and I didn't see the movie yet.
it seems most of the bad reviews are about the poor script.

[shady23]

^^ Yeah that's it exactly. The script wasn't all that. It felt like they were trying to rush through the movie after the first half hour where they were explaining Perseus' role

The graphics weren't spectacular but it didn't make you stop and think to yourself, "wait na, that looking odd," either.

[idlemind]

Can anyone say if its offered in 3D @ CC8?

[drop ho]

Agreed ok'ish

[Hook]

Didn't he have a helmet of invisibility for when he had to go talk to the three witches? It's how he used it to steal the eye from them, not so?

And what happened to the winged sandals?

[AllTrac]

[bluesteel29]

[trini mk5]

Was ok wasn't as shiddy as some ppl making it out to be....these kind of movies should be longer IMO...Lord Of the Rings FTW

[Hook]

movie was good...

wah Perseus eventually did with the owl???????

old d00d told him to put it back...so he did

[crazybalhead]

BTW folks, at the end of the movie, it says the movie was based on the old movie, and not the actual mythology.

I still think the old one is a classic, and this one kinda forgetable.

that was sum serious bootleg shid

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

waiting for the indian version, Clash of the Chaitans...

yes Lord of the Roti - The Two Tawas was good

[wagon r]

^ you need to get out of the house more....gggeeezzzzz.....

[tr1ad]

i tort was god of war 3

[ztune]

good movie. medusa had a better neck go down in the movie "lightening thief" though

[EVA Unit-01]

so i jus saw it @ MovieTowne

i give the movie a 2.5 out of 5 for the following reasons:

1. The story was very much changed, from both the original movie and the mythology. As such, lovers of either will find it somewhat disappointing.

2. The special effects were lacking in the"special" department, either by choice (like the animatronic boatman) or cost (looks like they saved mostly for the scorpions and the Kraken).

3. The casting was a bit off (i mean, come on! an Indian dude in the Olympian plethora of gods?!), with the acting being rather bland and uninspired (except for Zeus' exclamations of "You're a son of Zeus!"); wasn't helped by the lackluster script.

4. The director's inspiration was all too obvious due to his wholesale copying from other praiseworthy sources (the God of War series, Avatar, etc).

if you're viewing it as a first-timer, without the classic 1981 version affixed firmly in your fondest memories, you just might enjoy it as another action blockbuster.

but if you're looking for an update of the timeless classic you loved as a child, you may be somewhat disappointed...

that's why it's called a Classic

ok anyone found medusa real sexy?....i was kinda turned on

ent! guts for that normal normal
