Wrath Of The Titans

If there was one movie wich was panned by critics in the year 2010, it was Clash Of The Titans. Almost every critic hated so many things about that movie, they simply did not want it to be made at all. But the audience did not care. It became a huge box office success, so it did not matter what the critics had to say. So a sequel is now here ( wow....i am so suprised, or not ). Basically with the same cast from the first movie, is Wrath Of The Titans a better motion picture than expected, or is it exactly what we would fear ?

10 years have gone since Perseus ( Sam Worthington ), defeated the Kraken. Perseus lives an ordinary life, as a fisherman, with his son Helius ( John Bell ). One night his father Zeus ( Liam Neeson ), visits Perseus, asking for his help. The power of gods are fading and the walls of the underworld prison Tartarus are breaking. Perseus does not want to help Zeus, and ignore him. Zeus decide to travel to Tartarus to meet Hades ( Ralph Fiennes ), Poseidon ( Danny Huston ) and Ares ( Edgar Ramirez ). Zeus ask Hades to forget about the past, and help build Tarturus back to what it once was. But Hades have other plans, he orders his minions to attack. Poseidon is injured, while Ares betray Zeus, and take him as a prisoner. Perseus finds out what has happened, and begins a journey, to stop the revival of Kronos.

I did not hate Clash Of The Titans, but it still had a lot of flaws. Wrath Of The Titans is an improvement, in many ways. The story of Perseus is more well written than earlier, the effects are definetely better, as well as the acting from different sides. Another improvement are the different gods and monsters, who make the action scenes more enjoyable. Try and forget about Clash Of The Titans, this one delivers alot more of everything, perfect with a ice cold beer with your mates, There are some cheesy moments, but overall, worth checking out.
