Clash of the Titans (2010)

May 2, 2010

Director: Louis Letterier

Cast: Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes

Crap.

What?

That’s all you need to know.

OK. Poor acting, poor story and it wasn’t long enough to get you really involved in the story. It could have been epic. It could have broke the box office. But, it seemed as if they rushed it almost; pushing it out the door to satisfy someone, maybe to get it out early to keep the 3D hype going.

That worked for me. It was a choice between this movie or a comedy and I was like “Why do I want to see a comedy at the movies? I wanna see big action and 3D effects!!!!”. You, know the stuff you can only really truly appreciate in front of the big screen.

The fact is; this movie didn’t need to be 3D. There was no mind blowing moments that had me reeling back in excitement. It was standard stuff.

The movie, which portrays a greek mythological story of Perseus, seemed to just border on the capabilities of greek mythology. There could have been so much more done with it. But there wasn’t.

Quite frankly, they should have scraped this movie and plowed full steam ahead on a ‘God of War’ movie.

Though that would be crap too.

It seems there is no room in film for special effects movies that actually have really good storyline and acting. When one does appear, it is heralded as an enormous success and rightly so.
Why cant production companies and so forth, pull there heads out of their asses and really look to prosper better stories and screenplays.

It seems the Hollywood machine is just in it for one thing.

And we, the poor schmucks, lap it up with open arms.

Society needs to wake up sometimes
