Nothing Close to being a Classic

Rating: 4/10 (10 April 2010)

I went to see this movie with an absolute high hope thinking it gonna be big!! It gonna be Hugh!! An Epic!! Somewhat like The Lords of the Ring. After all, the name itself already implies that –it is Clash of the Titans. But for crying out loud – this is nothing more than just a mediocre old age movie with really bad script and probably worst editing I've seen this year.
It doesn't take me long at all for me to realize that this is not going to be the movie I hope for (about 5mins into the film). The script was plain flat, no character development no nothing – heavily rely on how the action sequences and how going to turn out. The worst part was it very chopped up and everything seems like a race. One minute you were watching this, next minute is totally different situation – it was so fast I don't even have time to absorb anything. (For Pete sake! How cans anyone put an epic into 90 min movie?) Plus this film got really weak dialogue and completely uninspiring lines.
I'm really sorry but it doesn't really stop there. The casting was just awful (solely because of bad script) – I like Sam, but this movie make me realize –he doesn't have much personality or character at all, it is like he play the same character for every movie. The others are – you don't really care about them at all, much of their story and background have been omitted and so I don't really feel the connection or care how they're going to be.
I can't really point out the good part of the movie at all – but maybe a couple of decent CGI of the monsters and some fast pace action sequences that remind me of Transformers 2. The wardrobe was out of place, out of the blue there is couple of white dude wearing something like an Indian holy man, and the army suit was weird (though I do like Zeus suit).
Overall I'm quite disappointed with the whole movie and its story. But I guess the pre-teen boys might enjoy this with all the monsters killing, slaying the Medusa, and the quest to save the life of the princess he doesn't even know. No wonder it was release now rather than in the summer.
