Movie Reviews

Decent Films Guide - 9/10 by Steven D. GreydanusHarry Potter meets Clash of the Titans … The backdrop of Greek mythology makes an enjoyable change of pace from the medieval fantasy magic of the Potter stories.
Daily Record (UK) - 8/10 by Grant LauchlanThe technical wizardry is spectacular and the story is taut, pacy and consistently inventive.
Birmingham Post - 8/10 by Graham YoungThe film is a rousing blend of special effects, but not so scary that children aged seven and above will spend the entire movie hiding behind their fingers.
East Bay Express - 8/10 by Kelly VanceGrand prize goes to Uma Thurman as snake-headed Medusa. It's also a pleasure to see Steve Coogan in hell.
I.E. Weekly - 8/10 by Amy NicholsonThe Greek gods had outsized powers and petty grievances. These Gen-Y demigods are no different - it's a whole generation of kids with daddy issues
Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Alberta) - 8/10 by Brian GibsonAnother attempted launch of a teen-aimed franchise, but this show-boat is rowing through the motions. Seen-that, been-there fantasy-epic stuff with dialogue more wooden and hollow than the Trojan Horse.
Cinema Sight - 8/10 by Wesley LovellNot a perfect film, but the movie does have a certain passion that a lot of other franchise attempts have lacked. If you like Greek mythology and are looking for an antidote to Clash of the Titans, this may be what you're looking for.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Amy BiancolliA whole lot of plot ensues - an entertaining mix of buddy movie, road trip, "Clash of the Titans," archetypal quest and a coming-of-age tale about misfits making their way despite, or because of, absent parents.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertDirector Chris Columbus has fun with this goofy premise, but as always I am distracted by the practical aspects of the story. Does it bother the Greek gods that no one any longer knows or cares that they rule the world? What are the genetic implications of human/god interbreeding?
Reeling Reviews - 8/10 by Robin Clifford...an attempt to replicate the phenomenon that is Harry Potter.
