Stunningly enthralling

Rating: 10/10 (10 May 2010)

I always loved ancient Greek mythology. Even when I was a lil' kid I used to read the legendary myths and be amazed by all these incredible ideas and stories the people from the very Cradle of Civilization would hold true and passionately believe in. Yes, I used to watch the campy "Hercules" with Kevin Sorbo. Later, I loved the "Age of Mythology" RTS. And now, after long years of deep slumber, my love for Ancient Greek gods, and heroes, and fearless mortals who opposed them was magically nourished and reborn by this new "Clash of the Titans" film.
Throughout the movie, adrenalin was being pumped non-stop, my face of jaw-dropping amazement could only temporarily be replaced by a glittering smile. The 3D visuals were simply TOP-NOTCH, that is, like something I have never seen before. The acting was great: Sam gave a genuine and charismatic performance; Liam Neeson redeemed himself of his "Taken" nonsense; it was pleasant to see the amazing actress Polly Walker from "Rome" have a part in the spectacle, but, to me, Mads Mikkelsen and his staunch acting was the one worth the title of the demigod.
I saw this film a nice, still spring evening. I loved it, and whilst watching it, I loved life.
