Absolutely terrible. Would it have hurt to get Sam Worthington some vocal coaching? Pretty sure Perseus wouldn't have had a bogan Aussie accent. This movie was full of big, pointless action scenes and suffered in every other aspect. Historical discrepancies (e.g. characters saying "What the hell" when it wasn't called Hell in those legends but instead Hades), terrible editing, pointless scenes that didn't go anywhere, it didn't make sense and it was just stupid and boring. |

Yeah. The original was awesome, but the best thing about it was the Ray Harryhausen effects.
So, when they remake that movie, and replace it's main draw with the same generic CGI that every summer blockbuster has, what do you expect? Last edited by boo boo; 04-08-2010 at 12:35 AM. |

I enjoyed the second half of the film a lot more than the first. 50 minutes in I was thinking of giving it a 5/10 which is average. The second half redeemed it I was tempted to give it a 6/10. But I'm going to give it a 7/10. I'm feeling generous. |

I hate it when people use abbreviations and I have to look up what they stand for.
3D won't die, and I don't understand why people hate it so much. I think 3D can be a great thing as long as it truly compliments the atmosphere, action and imerssive effect of the film, instead of serving only as a gimmick and an excuse to wow you with cheap things like constantly throwing stuff into the foreground. I still think the 3D in Avatar was f*cking amazing. I saw Alice in 3D which was cool but it doesn't come close nor has any other 3D I've seen. It seems a lot more films now are in 3D because of Avatar but producers fail to realize that a key to Avatar's success isn't just the fact that it was in 3D, but also the fact that it pushed the technology forward, films are not gonna imitate it's success by simply doing 3D the way it's always been done, Avatar raised the bar visually and thus people are gonna want more visuals that are on par with it. Rest assured, one day 3D is gonna evolve into holograms or virtual reality and all that Star Trek stuff and it will literally blow your ass away. Last edited by boo boo; 04-08-2010 at 04:52 AM. |

I enjoy having an ass and am not sure I would want it to be literally blown away because I'd imagine life without one would be uncomfortable to say the least. Having it figurative blown away would be okay though.

I watched Alice in 3D, the glasses ruined the colours of the movie. It seemed dimmer with the glasses on, nothing about the 3D experience was good. I got a headache after it as well. 3D is fucking awful. If it's not broke, don't fix it. No one has ever had issues with film being in 2D. I also think if it doesn't die directors will start making films that are suited to 3D and then the DVD release won't be as good.
