Clash of the Titans



"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 (Movie Details: Golden Village website)."

As I didn't watch the first version of this movie, I don't know which story line is better. In this movie, the story line was pretty straight forward. I enjoyed when Sam Worthington and a group of warriors were on their way to find the witches. They fought with giant scorpions in the desert and later killed the female monster with snake hair "Medusa". Everyone died except the male lead. The visual effects were great especially when the giant sea monster "Kraken" came out from the sea bed. To me, everything in the movie is "average" and nothing fantastic. Overall, it's still entertaining and my movie rating is 3/5.
