Clash of the Titans (2010)
yes~ today i went to watch movie again~ even though i was busy till the very core of my life!! movie is still a must for me to continue leaving!! so today movie is Clash of the Titans~ directed by Louis Leterrier~ he is the director for The Incredible Hulk, Unleashed and also Transporter 2~ all of them were action movies~ can tell that he is quite experience in action film~ and in truth he is good at finding the best angle for a very good fighting scene~ so you can look forward to watch Clash of the Titans in the cinema~ so lets start with the story~
story is a base on ancient Greek gods and goddess... so the starting is the introductions of how Zeus become god and create human... go and read some Greek history or watch the movie to know more details... so the real story start with a fisherman accidentally found a coffin that was floating in the sea~ he net it up and open and look inside probably expecting some treasure or money.. but then all he found is a dead woman and a new born baby boy~ pity the baby so he took him in and rise him up just like his own son.. name Perseus.. and later on he and his wife (yes the fisherman have a wife) have another baby of their own which is a girl~ but i kind of forgot her name... and after that the story cut until twelves years later when Perseus was big and tall with his family go out fishing... but then lately they have hard time catching any fish because that time human were trying to take over gods place and rule the world with their own power... and coincidentally when Perseus family was about to go an pray for Zeus for more food they come across a bunch of army that was breaking down Zeus statue (which was very very close to the seaside) and the statue falls right in front of their boat~ of cause Zeus got angry and send some one (Hades) to like teach the army a lesson~ and so Perseus family accidentally involve in and all of them died except for Perseus... so the remaining of the army that survive took him into their city and i don't know why bring him to see the king... and at the king's place they have some sort of party like thing to celebrate that they have break down Zeus statue... and at the same time Hades appears again because the queen was blabbing something about how useless a god is and human is more stronger and how pretty her daughter is... and so to teach her a lesson including to make all the human fear of god he ask for sacrificing the princess or else he will destroy this whole city~ and he saw Perseus and tell him that he was son of Zeus... (this is the part were Perseus found out about his real parent)after that the soldiers were questioning Perseus about how to stop Hades to destroy the city and the king also like asking him for help... although at first he refuse and claims that he is not going to fight... but then a girl name Io shows up and tell him about his identity and then it some how ends up that Perseus wants to have revenge on Hades for killing his parent in earth and decided to help the king to stop all this...
and so a bunch of people set out the city to find a way to stop Hades and save the princess~ in the journey they fight Acrisius (consider a slave of Hades?) which was Perseus mothers real husband, big scorpion that can be controlled by some scary zombie looking creature, and Perseus have found his pet a black color Pegasus and was told that no man have ever ride on a Pegasus before, and Perseus also found a sward that was given by his real father Zeus that can only be used by him (when other human hold the sword the blade will not appear) and finally they have reach the witch place and get to ask a solution to stop Hades pet the Kraken~ the solution is to find Medusa and use he gaze to stone fide Kraken... so they when to find Medusa at the underworld and all the guy that was in the journey died but then Perseus manage to get Medusa's head to fight the Kraken~ and before he leave the place Acrisius appear again and killed Io~ full with anger Perseus fights and win the battle against Acrisius and killed him using the sword that his real father gave him~ after Io died and vanish into the sky (since she is the same kind of people like Perseus, half human half god) Perseus set up to save the princess using Pegasus~ although Hades tried his best to stop him because his real target is to become god and kill all man kind including Zeus~ but then in the end he still fail~ so Perseus save the world and Hades went back to his underworld again~ although Zeus wanted Perseus to go back the Olympus but then Perseus refuse and wanted to stay human~ and to show his son that he still loves him although they never meet for so long Zeus being Io back to life~ a happy ending for them~
the whole thing is similar to the Greek story Hercules but then they change a few characters name and add in some new character~ but the story is still just so so~ i even feel that the original Hercules was better... sorry for that... but then what worth watching in this movie other then the CGI is the way they make the fighting scene~ well the angel was nice and the way they edit it was very interesting~ i have fun watching them fighting the big scorpion~ it was funny... well... they add in quite some hilarious scene in there... so it was funny until almost the ending... the fight between Perseus and the Kraken was a total disappointment because they didn't direct fight each other... the whole thing was like when Perseus prepares to get Medusa's head out of a bag Hades send his demons to snatch the bag and Perseus was chasing that demon rather then fight the Kraken... until the end when he get the bag back and shine Medusa's eye to the Kraken and the Kraken stone fide... and die... and thats all... the way he beat Hades was even more disappointing... although he is just a underworld ruler but as a god Hades can't die... so the way although he is just a underworld ruler beat him is by using the sword Zeus gave plus Zeus lightning he throw it towards Hades and Hades was hit fly straight back into the underworld... is weird... but anyway the CGI is really awesome... the whole movie was totally CGI... so at some point is still worth watching it in cinema... if possible go and watch it in 3D cinema~ it will have double the awesomeness~
