Clash of the Titans 2010-Bluray September 5, 2010 Samuel G. Wall This is an excellent retelling of the legend of Perseus and the clash of the titans (Medusa and the Kraken.) The graphics of this remake are far superior to the 1981 film of the same name whose "graphics" were done by Ray Harryhausen. Harryhausen did good work on other films (in particular one of my favorites-Jason and the Argonauts from the early 1960's), but hey, let's face it; this was not one of Harryhausen's better efforts. The underwater shots, the giant scorpions, the battle with Medusa, the flying horse Pegasus, the ultimate destruction of the Kraken, etc, the whole film is magnificent. For anyone who likes Greek Mythology or just plain good movies with good plots, good photography/graphics, etc, this is a must-have. Especially on High-Definition Bluray.
It was slightly entertaining September 5, 2010 Spike Drink (Nevada) Did not follow the original movie as I thought it would. I was not expecting a masterpiece, so I was not as disappointed as others. I found it slightly entertaining, but I would rather watch the original. They are both cheesy, but the first one has nostalgia.
Great at home in 3D! September 3, 2010 beta 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was a fun movie, lots of action and adventure, good characters, visually stimulating and has Liam Neeson as Zeus! You can't beat that.
This movie got a lot of flack for being hastily "converted" to 3D at the last minute before being released to theaters. But I thought it actually looked pretty good. I watched it in 3D at home on a regular TV using my TV Eyes 3D glasses. (They're a type of optical 3D glasses that makes regular movies look 3D without having to use a 3D TV or 3D movie).
The effects really looked good. Medusa in her wrecked castle, slithering around everywhere, her whipsnake body lashing and curling over all the pillars looked amazing. Loved the effect when she turned people to stone.
There were several really good 3D scenes, the toppling of the statue of Zeus, with Perseus's family ship in the ocean below the cliffs, you could really see all the way out to the horizon. The confrontation between Zeus and Hades in Olympus. Hades appearing in the hall like a giant angel of death. The attack of the giant scorpions. And, of course, the Kraken. I especially loved the flying chase scene where Perseus, on Pegasus, has to chase one of the harpies all over the besieged city to get back Medusa's head that it had stolen.
Overall, a very visually vibrant movie. It had a good mythological feel to it. A straightforward story without being too simple. Lots of heroism as Perseus fights not only the monsters, but the gods, and the other humans expectations of him.
The star, who also starred in Avatar, was especially good, I thought. Believable without ever overpowering the role with his "stardom" that's a great quality in an actor. He makes the character come to life.
I gave this movie 4 stars. It's not the most amazing movie ever made, but it is a great way to spend a couple of hours on a lazy afternoon. And it looked great in 3D on my TV. Beautiful stuff. (Especially the location shoots which were very atmospheric and lush.)
a film abomination... September 3, 2010 StormNatureX (Wausau, WI USA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
In the beginning, it jumps around. There's nothing dramatic about it. Then, it becomes more dramatic, but you never care about any of the characters, except maybe Io, a little. You never get to see the other gods. You can't tell which ones are which. Zeus and Hades look exactly alike, as far as their faces. I couldn't tell them apart when they were visiting mortals in secret, or disguise. What a waste for Fiennes, who usually does a great job. The ending didn't make any sense. He doesn't marry who you'd think, and she gets sent back from heaven, that would suck. I don't mind, but she's like his godmother. Why the heck? What were they thinking? This movie makes zero sense! They jump around. There's no feeling to it. What a waste! Don't buy it unless it's one or two dollars, and even then, you probably shouldn't bother. What a waste of Sam Worthington, as well. I wanted to see him in it, but it's too bad. What the hell is IT? That's what I'd ask about this movie.
The Original is better September 2, 2010 Dee from Gary, Indiana (USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I couldn't believe it. I guess if you've never seen the original with Harry Hamilin, et al, you would think this movie was pretty good. The Kracken was uglier, the princess was not even pretty, and there were times when my sons and I could actually detect the background as computer generated, called blue screening or something. Anyway, considering that this is 2010, we expected something much better. A real disappointment.
