In the myth and the original movie Darth_Katie Send a noteboard - 09/04/2010 12:31:18 PM
Pretty much agree with most you said. The visuals were overall excellent, only the Medusa looked a little 1999 to me. I also found the Kraken showdown to be a bit too short after the huge set up. And more Gods doing or saying more awesome stuff would have been nice. I liked Neeson as Zeus, though. But I was really entertained and had fun with all the monsters, landscapes and guys with burned firewood as a face.
A few times the film reminded me of the Mummy remake, and that's a good thing in my book.
It's true that 3D doesn't have much to add to the film, sadly we didn't have a choice in our region.

But I wonder, what is the Andromeda twist that surprised you so?


Andromeda and Perseus get married at the end. I thought the ending this movie chose was much better. I mean, saving someone from a Kraken is hardly a solid basis for a life-long relationship. At least Io and Perseus know each other in another context.
Insert theme music here.

Fully agree, except for the shirt issue. And never having seen the original CotT. *NM* Cannoli - 07/04/2010 12:59:37 AM 284 Views
If you get a chance, try to see the original. Ultimately, I think it's a better story than the 2010. *NM* The Shrike - 07/04/2010 02:19:33 AM 261 Views

Hero is supposed to end up with Andromeda. Not with Io. *NM* The Shrike - 10/04/2010 12:45:21 AM 264 Views

I know right. Sometimes its fun to be oppressed. The Shrike - 11/04/2010 08:05:40 PM 539 Views
I noticed Andromeda still had her ropes on when she was lying next to Perseus on the beach... *NM* Ghavrel - 12/04/2010 04:19:58 AM 286 Views
