OK story and special effects

Rating: 6/10 (12 January 2011)

While the acting is nothing to talk about, the movie does have good special effects, but not great. Perseus, a demi-god, sets upon a quest to save a kingdom against Hades and the Kraken. He also has a personal grudge against Hades since he is responsible for his human families deaths.
So, he sets out with some soldiers and travels through a desert. There they encounter these mystical people and giant scorpions. Here we get a battle scene that after a while gets old. One of the desert people joins the quest as they go to see these witches to learn how to defeat the Kraken. Then it is off to the underworld and to kill Medusa. The Medusa part was OK, but the special effects could have been better. Then the fall of the Kraken was rather uneventful.
FINAL VERDICT: The story definitely could have been better. But it was a descent action flick. I recommend it if an action film is what you are looking for.
