Wrath of The Titans (2012)
Action, Adventure, Fantasy
It's not a good thing when I have nothing to say about a movie... I don't know why I do this to myself sometimes. I love Greek mythology and I know before I even see a preview that I'm not going to like this movie, and I was right. I just sat there and picked holes at it... besides the fact it was a pretty lame ass movie.
It even has
Sam Worthington (
Avatar) in it and you all know how much I love Aussies... not this time, sorry Sam. I might give you an extra point 'cos you were born in my town but that whole performance looked really damn uncomfortable... and your accent is the most
ocker Aussie accent I've ever heard, I can't believe they didn't ask for you to tone it down a little. 'Tis kinda cool that the son of Zeus is Australian though. *snickers*
Liam Neeson as Zeus... you'd think it would be as awesome as Liam Neeson as Qui-Gon Jinn in
Star Wars but no... Zeus, I'm sad to say, is lame. I thought Ares looked so much like
Kit Harington (
Game Of Thrones) that I just couldn't get past it. I imagined it was him through the whole thing, it made it slightly better.
I do love
Ralph Fiennes (
Schindler's List) though. Still, he was much too big for the role of Hades. It is nice to see him with a nose now after so many years of playing
Voldemort, and at least him and Zeus sort of looked alike...I don't know, I think the script let them all down; it was boring and predictable.
2 out of 5 lightning bolts....
Liam Neeson as Zeus... you'd think it would be as awesome as Liam Neeson as Qui-Gon Jinn in Star Wars but no... Zeus, I'm sad to say, is lame. I thought Ares looked so much like Kit Harington (Game Of Thrones) that I just couldn't get past it. I imagined it was him through the whole thing, it made it slightly better.
