Spüre den Zorn
Ein Jahrzehnt, nachdem Perseus, der Halbgott-Sohn von Zeus, den Kraken besiegt hat, sehnt er sich nach einem ruhigen Leben als Fischer in einem kleinen Dorf und möchte sich ganz der Erziehung seines zehnjährigen Sohnes Helius widmen. Doch unterdessen tobt ein Krieg um die Vorherrschaft auf dem Olymp zwischen Göttern und Titanen. Die Götter verlieren zunehmend die Kontrolle über die eingesperrten Titanen und deren Anführer Kronos, dem Vater von Zeus, Hades und Poseidon. Als Hades einen Putsch gegen Zeus plant, um mit Kronos‘ Hilfe die Herrschaft an sich zu reißen, muss Perseus erneut in den Kampf ziehen und zusammmen mit der Kriegerkönigin Andromeda, Poseidons Halbgöttersohn Agenor und dem gefallenen Gott Hephaestus in die Unterwelt hinabsteigen, um seinen Vater zu retten und die Titanen endgültig zu bezwingen.

So... Script; dreadful, absolutely cringeworthy in places. There are scenes when I wondered to myself if they were even trying, then I remembered he wrote last years "Red Riding Hood", so no. Acting; there should have been some. No, really. Worthington hasn't acted since Somersault back in 2004. Neeson and Fiennes phoned it in and the call was collect. Creature design; completely uninspired. Some look a little like high school art fair projects that won stickers for participation. A couple of nice action scenes, but overall entirely forgetable. I woke up this morning and struggled to remember what it was I had watched. I had to check Trakt! If you do watch it and in 3D, there is a very nice sequence about 7 minutes in I think (Maybe? Could be 30. Who knows, the film made space and time dilate. I was sitting beside a 60 year old version of myself by the third act). It is a reverse drop down a ravine, 180 into free fall and then twists down a tunnel; played hell with my vertigo in the best way. So I enjoyed at least 15 seconds. Whimper of the Titans is hard to recommend, except to the high school art fair participants for a confidence boost.
Nice story about not so mighty gods and superhero fisherman :)
>"You will learn someday that being half human, makes you stronger than a god." Once again I need to just say it: I absolutely love Greek mythology and the encyclopedia of monsters they have. That being said I don't know why the Clash and Wrath of Titans movies can't figure out how to tell a good story. The creature design is awesome, so really you just need guidance on how to tell a good story.
The first film Clash of the Titans like most films that has a sequel is better than this film. I felt like Wrath of the Titans was just an OK movie. It wasn't great, and it wasn't awful either. I never saw Clash of the Titans in 3D so I can't comment on the difference in 3D effects between the two; special effects had improved though. The story line in the film felt boring to me at times, and it could have used a couple of more action scenes in there.
I refuse to look at "Wrath of the Titans" as anything but a monster movie. If I think back to the orignal "Clash of the Titans" "Jason and the Argonauts" the "Sinbad" movies we watched for the beasts the Harryhausen creations. We didn't watch them for any deep meaning. We watched them for the action and adventure. "Wrath of the Titans" may not improve over time but it's not that bad to begin with. There's plenty of excitement including a pretty gripping journey through a labrynth. And then there's those giant monsters. There all CGI but they actually look pretty good. Plus the giant lava god Kronos is as gigantic of a creation as you've ever seen in the movies. Sam Worthington is a personable likeable hero. Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes provide solid support as god brothers. It's all spectacle and it's big dumb fun. Don't expect anything enlightening and you'll enjoy it.
