This remake of the "Clash of the Titans" in 3D is impressive! It's like a history lesson in Greek mythology where you're actually experiencing the journey. You're up close and personal in this dark mythical story which is set in the Greek city of Argos. War is about to erupt between
mankind and the Gods because the Gods believe humans are ungrateful and the humans feel mistreated.
mankind and the Gods because the Gods believe humans are ungrateful and the humans feel mistreated.
Perseus (Sam Worthington) who was raised as a fisherman is out to avenge his family who was killed by Hades (Ralph Fiennes) the God of the Underworld. Perseus (Worthington) sets out with a small group of soldiers to take on Hades but he doesn't realize he's a part of the family. Perseus discovers that his father is Zeus (Liam Neeson), which makes him a Demi-God, halfman, half God.
...and
Hades
Zeus's brother is his Uncle.
As a result of their discord the Gods decide to teach these mere mortals a lesson. Zeus (Neesom) gives his brother Hades (Fiennes) permission to wreak havoc on humans by unleashing his evil rath in the form of the Kraken, who's goal is to destroy mankind.

So Perseus's journey takes a different turn instead of avenging his family his destiny makes him the only one who can save mankind.. Fiennes is superb and brilliantly evil as Hades. The special effects and 3-D experience takes the "Clash of the Titans" to a new level with extraordinary scenes of Perseus (Worthington) taking on Medusa and the Kracken Monster!
to the original (1981)
"Clash of the Titans" but teenagers will be reminded of the recent release of " Percy Jackson and the Lightening Thief". " Seeing that before this new 3-D version made "Clash of the Titans" easier to follow because it's the same story with more background, detailed and amped up special effects. It's basically the grown up version!
You'll have fun watching this movie!
