"8.5/10"

An average movie

“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since I kept hearing some interesting things about it, I thought I might as well check it out. First of all, to be honest, the circumstances during which I watched this movie were not really ideal. Indeed, I saw it on the BBC without subtitles but, even worse, even though I started to watch it rather early at 19:30, for some reasons, I felt exhausted and struggled not to fall asleep. Anyway, how was this movie after all? Well, its biggest asset (and probably its biggest issue) is that the damned thing was really all over the place. Indeed, if you were expecting a classic sword-and-sandal epic, well, you will probably get a big surprise here. Sure, you get some Greek mythology but, also, a lot of pretty girls, even a couple of nudes,” read more

Why It’s Rated (604 movies items)

"Rated: PG Why it’s rated: Violence and nudity. After it’s called Clash of the Titans."

“(Blu) Harryhausen had lot of reosurces here, it's an hommage from him (as coproducer) to his skills; but he ges no further than the wonderful "Jason" or even his "Sinbad". The character of Calybos, the punsishment in the sea are better than Medusa and the Kraken...Firt part is better....Olivier is better than the ladies” read more

"When you look at all the destruction and chaos that Zues & Co. release down on our humble planet just outta petty jealousy and pride, it really reveals the truth behind the old saying, "The gods must be crazy". While I'm not usually a big fan of movie remakes, for me, the original Clash, is an excellent example of a classic that would greatly benefit from today's special effects technology (which it did when it remade in 2010, altho the story in that update didn't hold up s well to the mor"
