Could have been better

Rating: 6/10 (13 April 2010)

I'm probably repeating what many others have said, but here goes - it was a bit of a let down, I felt as though we didn't get time to get to know any of the characters and that includes Perseus himself. The only gods who got much screen time were Zeus and Hades (I think Apollo and Poseidon were the only others who spoke or got close-ups!). The plot didn't need to be changed, they should have stuck to the old one and just updated it a bit - fans are always going to be put out when they change much loved stories like that.
The 3D wasn't so great either, for those who haven't seen it yet, you might as well save your money and go and see the non-3D version because if you're expecting something as good, visually, as Avatar, you will be sadly disappointed.
In fact, the only thing that improved it for me was the CGI - if the original could have had the special effects that this version had then there would have been no need to remake it at all!
