It's here! The time has come for the Titans to clash! :D It's a movie to watch, I would say, but not in 3D. 3D movies are for the animation kind. Some people may think that Clash of the Titans is not so nice but to me, it's good. It's so similar to the story of Hercules where Hercules was brought down to earth and lived as a mortal. Perseus, the main character of the movie, acted by the famous Sam Worthington (you might remember him from Avatar), is almost the same except he is a demi-god, half human, half god.
Here you see the Gin, Perseus as well as the witches, which is the same witches that the story of Hercules has. See this movie really reminds me of the story of Hercules as well as a little on the Greek gods.
A short synopsis
"The Clash of the Titans" is set in the Greek city of Argos where a war is about to explode between man and the gods. Perseus (Sam Worthington) raised as a fisherman, but is actually a demi-god. Perseus is the son of Zeus (Liam Neeson) who is about to take on the gods after the death of his family. Zeus' brother Hades (Ralph Fiennes) was the one who kill his family, and Perseus wants to kill him. However, it is Perseus's destiny to rescue the city of Argos from the ruthless rage of Hades and his Kraken monster. With nothing to lose, Perseus leads a band of soldiers on a quest to defeat the Kraken. In doing this, Perseus will prevent Hades from overthrowing Zeus and in turn destroying mankind.
Kraken this name, and this monster, reminds me of the Kraken in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie. That big sea monster which is the pet of the terrifying Flying Dutchman - Davy Jones. Except this Kraken here is the pet of Hades.
The name is the same, just that the picture of the Kraken in both movies are different. The Kraken in the movie Clash of the Titans looks horrifying. RAWR.
You get Ralph Fiennes acting as the bad guy in this movie! Hades, the king of the Underworld. Well, he potrays a very good image of the bad guys. You can find him in all the Harry Potter movies as Lord Voldemort.
Medusa, one look and you will turn into stone. Again, this character reminds me of one of the heroes in the game Dota. Forgive me that I just have to mention it.
Rating : 7/10
The whole story is quite similar to the story of Hercules, and I don't remember having a black Pegasus. But who cares, this is the Clash of the Titans! And Oh my GOD. The scorpions are Humongous! HUGE. The problem with this movie is that you might wonder how can Io, the main actress can follow the few soldiers in search for the Kraken, as well as who are the rest of the Gods that appeared with Zeus. I'm curious to know. :)
