Hey Kids!
I'm back! And I must say that I just have not been feeling in the blogging mood. And mainly because of the mediocre movies that have been out thus far in 2010. This review is about the remake of Clash of the Titans. And it was...for lack of a better word...it was OK...was it entertaining? YES!
Is it better than the original...YES! Could it have been better...I can't think of how it could. But I haven't really seen a movie (not since AVATAR) that made me leave the theater extremely happy and in love with movies again. Well I think, scratch that I KNOW AVATAR has ruined other 3D movies for me. They don't seem to be of the same quality. And that is possibly because they weren't shot in 3D like AVATAR, they were sh
ot in the regular 2D format and then transferred over to 3D....AND IT IS NOT THE SAME!!!And speaking of AVATAR, it stars Sam Worthington (Who had a great 2009 and on his way to having a great 2010) and Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes. I really like Liam Neeson he has such a demanding presence. He was nicely cast in the role of Zeus King of the Gods.
And Ralph Fiennes has been growing on me since he was cast as Lord Voldomort in the Harry Potter films. And he does a great job as Hades in the film. I just wish he didn't sound like the Dark Lord. He should of found a different voice for Hades(Ryan, weseemovies.com).
Now if you were a fan of the original, like myself and every other nerd and geek (closeted or not). You will like this one. Mainly because it is the original with wwwaaaayyyy better graphics. Although I did miss seeing the play dough looking blood...lol and I think it was too short! But with people's low attention spans these days that's probably a good thing.
I can recommend it if you are looking for an entertaining movie to go see...and plus there really isn't anything else out right now that
I would say you HAVE to run out and go see. You DO NOT have to spend an extra 2 or 3 dollars to see this in 3D...it will be just as good in 2D (hey that way you can afford some popcorn and a drink). See this if you saw the original and liked it so much you want to see the remake. And see this if you just want to get out and go to the movies. But you really don't have to run out to see it (in my opinion) it will be just as nice as a rental...especially since just about everyone has a large plasma screen!~Verdict~
Two snaps up and "Release the Kraken!"
