Once again, concept beats execution. Largely filled with computer generated imagery, Clash of the Titans tells an old story - a story that has stood the test of time, literally thousands of years old - and makes it boring. It looks great but who really cares?
Six weeks earlier, I had seen Percy Jackson and the Olympians - The Lightning Thief. That movie told almost exactly the same story - Percy Jackson was a contemporary Perceus - and told it with some style. Percy Jackson wasn't a great movie either, but its fun quotient was a bit higher (can you say Uma Thurman as Medusa?). You can safely skip both Percy Jackson and Clash of the Titans for home viewing.
