Tries too hard.

Rating: 4/10 (23 September 2010)

Okay, the original "Clash of the Titans" was cheesy and by today standards, it might look silly and dated. However, this remake manages to be sillies and cheesier, mostly because it takes itself so seriously that it ends being ridiculous and stupid.
Sure: The special effects and CGI were good, and plot tries too hard to be edgier and more intense than the original movie, adding more violence, drama and angst and all that stuff, but after all, it ends being just another "Lord of the Rings" wannabe that fails and is quickly forgotten. Just like "Eragon". Or "SpiderWick". Or "Percy Jackson". Or "The Scorpion King". Or "The Golden Compass". Or "300". Or "Beowulf". Or...The list is way too long.
Even when I 'm not fan of the original movie, I would rather the 1980 version than watch this again.
