Clash of the Titans


Watched it last night. But the title is a bit out ler. The movie itself is OK. I mean clash of the titans, shouldn't it mean a couple titans slugging out? Instead it's just a few guys fighting some monsters? It should be Perseus vs the monsters/Hades. I'll give it a 3.5/5. It's not a bad movie, plus i've been told that the movie is just ok therefore, my expectations were not that high. But it's more than what i expected.

This is a story about a Demigod, the son of Zeus, Perseus who has been living his whole life as a fisherman until one day, Hades killed his parents and sister/brother. So he wanted revenge!!! He was caught by the soldiers from Argos and was imprisoned, where he was told by Io (gemma arteton) that he's the son of Zeus. Before he was imprisoned, the king and queen of Argos were excited/proud that they declared war on the Gods by destroying their statues and temples. After that, Hades appeared and threatened them, that he would "Release the Kraken" if they do not sacrifice the princess before the eclipse as the queen claimed that the princess is the most beautiful thing alive.

So Perseus went on the hunt to kill hades to revenge the death of his family and stop the Kraken. So in his journey, he fought the former king, monstrous scorpions and killed medusa and lost all his companions. He cut of Medusa's head and used it to turn the Kraken into stone. And oh yeah, Zeus gave Perseus a sword and Pegasus(the horse with wings). Perseus used the sword to dump Hades back to hell.

It was an action packed movie but it was a bit too short lo. Around 1 hour 40 minutes only. They ending was a bit too predictable and maybe they were rushing to the end of the movie. I would have prefered more fighting against Hades. (cast - sam worthinton (avatar), liam neeson(star wars), gemma arteton director - louis leterrier)

Next movie, "Ice Kacang, puppy love". Yeepee... But I also wanna watch Shutter Island.............
