...what did I just watch?

Rating: 2/10 (12 July 2010)

I must admit, I had great expectations on this movie. I was expecting an epic adventure, seeing how the effects would imply that the movie had had some work put into it and the actors..wow, Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes together.
What is the end result then? Well...nothing. Loads of effects, but ZERO story, ZERO structure, ZERO of anything but effects. It begins rapidly and with great deal of overambitious talking. It ends with the main character (who throughout the movie utters some highly old cliché phrases and mostly look depressed) getting himself a nice chick..?? This movie feels rushed, it feels as if they did it because the theme is popular, but you CANNOT make an "epic" movie and then leave out the epic storyline and events...the fight against the Kraken is so short you wonder if it even took place, instead of a happy ending like say the Gods giving Perseus his family back, he gets a woman..common, there's NO goal, no planning no HEART in this movie. Stop making movies like this, or at least hand them to Stephen Spielberg who can make movies have both the awesome action and the heart....
Do not watch this until you can rent it very cheap, or get it from someone else...it's just not good!
