Editorial Review: Product Description: Perseus, the mortal son of Zeus, battles magic, monsters and ancient gods to rescue beautiful Andromeda from a primeval sea monster. Amazon.com: "Release the Kraken!" Ah, it could only be Clash of the Titans, the 2010 remake that retains the instruction to unleash the great beastie from the sea. The 1981 original boasted Ray Harryhausen's legendary stop-motion technique of animating various mythological creatures--it was his final feature project--and given the cornball approach of the movie in general, that was the main draw. The remake supplies new state-of-the-art special effects (released in 3-D) and a nicely muscular sense of momentum. Sam Worthington (the Avatar guy) plays Perseus, a demigod who doesn't know that Zeus (Liam Neeson) is his father. Perseus is selected to lead an expedition to find and slay the Medusa, lest Zeus's evil brother Hades (Ralph Fiennes, in fine slinking mode) rain down misery upon a seaport--and you just know that means the Kraken is coming. Ye gods, it's a mess, and we haven't even mentioned the witches and the harpies and the giant scorpions. But if we did, it would be clear that Clash of the Titans is a perfectly dandy popcorn epic, unpretentious and punchy. Director Louis Leterrier (Transporter 2) gets a fine rhythm going during Perseus's trek, and you can even forgive the hokey shafts-of-light-through-clouds look of Olympus. Leterrier also had the good sense to import the marvelous Danish star Mads Mikkelsen to provide mentoring duties to Perseus; Gemma Arterton and Alexa Davalos fulfill the eye-candy roles. It's up to individual viewers to choose which they prefer--Harryhausen's magically hand-wrought creations (his Medusa sequence is an absolute killer) or the 21st century's slick computer-generated variations. But nostalgia aside, it would be hard to deny that this is one case where the remake tops the original. --Robert Horton Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Clash of the Titans (2010) (Blu-ray)Movie - 4.0 While Clash '81 may be Ray Harryhausen's final legacy to a brilliant career and the center of reminiscence for many a child growing up or being born in that decade, I'm going to be honest and say I thought Clash '81 was a good, but not great movie. The reason being because I recently saw Jason and the Argonauts, a film that clearly surpasses Clash '81 in almost every conceivable category be it storytelling, special effects, overall production, and even BD presentation. 18 ...

Rating:  - Clash of the TitansMy son, Josh is right about this "Clash of the Titans" movie is really good movie. It's not bad movie. I like it. Rating:  - The Worst Remake of the History of Movie RemakeRemake is bad, the fact everyone knows. But this one is bad beyond belief. How can someone create a motion picture of this low quality working with brilliant actors such as Liam Neeson and Sam Worthington? I sincerely hope this trash will not damage reputations and future career of these gentlemen; especially a young and promising talent like Mr. Worthington. It is sad and horrifying to completely waste two hours of precious time of everyone. Rating: - Clash of the TitansLots of action a little different from the older Hollywood version. Animation was well done. Browse for similar items by category: Click to Display | |
