Clash of the Titans - Review

>> Friday, July 30, 2010

Clash of the TitansI recently watched the remake of this classic. I loved the original. And having read many reviews that were not favorable to the remake, I must say that I really enjoyed the film. Granted it did not follow the classic film, but it held it's own. It left out a lot of the elements that the original had. I didn't find that it detracted from the overall quality of it.

The major difference between the two was that the original took you on more of a journey than did the remake. But, that's OK.

I didn't see it see in 3D, so I was distracted by that hype.

One must keep in mind, this story is from Greek mythology. And Greek mythology which is up for interpretation and the stories themselves are not concrete; there are variations to them. That is the frame of mind that I had going into the film. I know for many enthusiasts, this film may not have hit the mark. I'm not a mythology Nazi, nor a am I a scholar of that realm. What I am is a lover of a good story. This was a good story, in my opinion.


So if you haven't seen it, give it a look. I recommend it. It's worth that nearly two hours. Then watch the original again to see the differences.
