Plain Awful... Sorry To Say It

Rating: 4/10 (30 May 2010)

This movie has no essence, no value, no logic... no nothing. This is the type of bullsh*t movie that producers and directors these days like to spend money on it becauseeeeee... it sells to the masses.
The storyline is... Wait! There is no storyline. Maybe I'm ignorant but what's the actual story? It starts there, it continues there and it ends there. This is the story. It has no substance and no narrative delivery whatsoever. There is no why/when/who/what or where. It's just simple, dull, boring and so obvious. There is no emotion that this movie could deliver, there is no reason it's just more of a MOTIVE to do a movie that will fill their pockets. So, like I said, the story itself has meaning and it's rushed-up just for the fight between Perseus and the Cracken or whatever his name is, which by the way, the fight was ended in less than 3 minutes. But was it a fight? Was it something "cool" to watch? Hell Naw... The dialogue was more than lame... I mean I could come with so many disturbing things about this movie but it's just to WEAK... not just WEAK but BAD...
The acting didn't save this movie at all... everyone either overplayed or just missed to fit into their role... Hades was ridiculous! Ralph Fiennes did a very poor job, I mean I was not feeling at all he was Hades... he sounded like he had been on the crack-pipe the night before he shot those scenes... When I first heard him i was laughing my ass off in the theater... Zeus was lame... he sounded more like a Hades instead of the King of Heavens. Gemma Arterton was the only good thing about this movie but wait I forgot about someone didn't I? OH YEAHHH! Sam Worthington as the mighty Perseus... such a lame performance... he was Jake Sully in this... I think the movie Avatar was that good and required real hard-work for him that affected his persona... so LOL!... Oh and Medusa? What the hell they were thinking? Let's finish with the script and acting since there was none of both and move to the way the movie was made. It was edited badly, many of the hand-to-hand fight scenes were filmed in closed-caption angles, and the cinematography was poor, I mean there were no actual stand-out moments or anything... it was just boring and disturbing. The visual effects who in the trailer looked so awesome were a joke. I mean the scorpions, especially their movement, the winged horses, even the Cracken was terribly made. You saw it was fake from 10 miles... it was that obvious and for a 2010 film that promoted the visuals more than the story or concept it is just unacceptable. Not to mention i laughed when I saw it in 3D... 3D? Really? It was bad... a lot of blur here a lot of blur there... and there was no stability during the movie.
The soundtrack was ... I could not even remember it because of how bad the movie was I was more impressed by the failed elements so to see the good parts in it was kind of hard... The good parts... Maybe some of the characters which might seem cool to watch or I don't know... It's hard to get the good things out of this... Absolutely forgot to mention that this was a big insult to the original movie...
This movie was/is such a joke... I think as far as expectations and the outcome it's definitely a stand-out this year for failure in cinema... Hate my review if you want... movie was bad.
