Clash of the Titans

Clash of the Titans
the review




Synopsis:

In Clash of the Titans, the ultimate struggle for power pits men against kings and kings against gods. But the war between the gods themselves could destroy the world. Born of a god but raised as a man, Perseus (Sam Worthington) is helpless to save his family from Hades (Ralph Fiennes), vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus (Liam Neeson) and unleash hell on earth. Leading a daring band of warriors, Perseus sets off on a perilous journey deep into forbidden worlds. Battling unholy demons and fearsome beasts, he will only survive if he can accept his power as a god, defy his fate and create his own destiny.

My Verdict:

The true definition of mediocrity. This film was really slow. I dozed off in the middle of the movie, and fyi, never do I fall asleep in action films, EVER!. None of the characters were at all interesting!! (except for the 2 brothers at the beginning who volunteered). The script was awful, the scenes were weird (especially when the gods meet), even when there were actions, it didn't even "wowed" me (except when they released the kraken). The gods seemed "powerless" and "tiny". The only part that rescued the movie from total disaster was when they released the KRAKEN!! (really wished the kraken had destroyed Argos). Graphically, i liked how Pegasus looked.

Ratings:

Graphics: **** (4/10)
Plot: **** (4/10)
Actors: **** (4/10)
Music: ****** (6/10)

Overall: ****(4/10)
