OK for the tweens and people who just need to kill some time.

Rating: 4/10 (2 April 2010)

It stunk. Not badly, but there was a definite factor of non-awesomeness. They tried a little too hard to make it over-the-top Epic, and fell short. As such we are left with a movie that felt like it could have been fantastic, but ended up being a good way to kill two hours.
Audio was over driven to cover up for the lack of quality content. Graphics were so heavy on the CGI, I lost the imersiveness and kept getting reminded that Hollywood was trying to blow my mind. Story was stripped down and poorly told. And I think they changed quite of a bit of the original mythology. I know they changed heavily from the original movie. Again its obvious they were pushing the action. Hera was completely cut out of the story. Apollo had one line and it was meaningless. The other Olympians were seen for maybe 2 or 3 frames. Acting from the lead was not great. It was obvious he was trying to over act. Maybe cuz he was a young newb surrounded by veteran actors. Liam Neeson is better suited to Zeus than Hannibal, but he still just didn't come across as quite right. Most of the supporting cast did a great job, but it still wasn't enough to make this movie great as a whole. It makes me not wanna go to the theater anymore.
Its a fine way to kill a afternoon, but don't go in expecting to get your money worth, or hoping for something that will be remembered in years to come. Its pretty darn forgettable. I suspect the kiddies will love it and then not speak of it 6 months from now.
