Is everyone excited about "Clash of the Titans" (2010)? Who isn't, agree? :)
Let's see.
First, this movie is available in 3D, the latest cinematic craze after Avatar's huge success.
Second, it's about Greek mythology. Remember Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Perseus, Medusa, Pegasus, and the rest of their "cronies".
Third, we've got big name actors like Sam Worthington (Terminator Salvation, Avatar) as Perseus, Liam Neeson as Zeus, and Ralph Fiennes as Hades.
Fourth, with all sort of hypes surrounding this movie, it looks really good and sounds very fantastic.
And so, I watched. :)

Perseus (first photo, not including movie poster), a demi-god, the son of Zeus (second photo) wants to take revenge on one of the gods, Hades (third photo) for the death of his family.
However, it turns out that Perseus' destiny is to rescue Argos from being destroyed by Hades and the sea monster, Kraken. Zeus allows Hades to destroy Argos without realizing Hades' intention to overthrow him and destroy mankind.
The best part of the movie is the perilous and damned journey of Perseus, the demi-god and his human army, led by Draco. They meet with Acrisius (Perseus' mother's husband), the Djinn, giant desert scorpions, Stygian Witches, Medusa, and finally, the Kraken. Well, only Perseus survives the journey with the help of Pegasus, the flying horse to defeat the Kraken and save Argos from destruction.


The battle of Perseus and his army with giant scorpions at the desert is intense and interesting. Same goes to the sneaky fight with Medusa before Perseus cut her head off her slithering body. I'd say that these two scenes are the most watchable part of this movie.
Overall, if you don't mind watching some warped Greek mythology, this movie is considerably entertaining. However, there's nothing much to shout about. You may give it a try if you're treating yourself with some cinematic enjoyment soon. :)
