This "Titans" reboot merely demonstrates that building a more elaborate mousetrap doesn't necessarily produce a more entertaining one.

Clash of the Titans
Louis Leterrier's (The Incredible Hulk) remake of the 1981 film about the hero Perseus (Worthington), born of a god but raised as a man, helpless to save his family from Hades (Fiennes), vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus (Neeson) and unleash hell on Earth. Leading a daring band of warriors, Perseus sets off on a perilous journey deep into forbidden worlds, battling unholy demons and fearsome beasts, including Medusa and the Kraken.
Filming took place in Wales and the Canary Islands, with aerial photography in Iceland and Ethiopia.

Big sets, wall-to-wall mayhem and hi-tech pixelry only go so far in a movie sure to leave anyone with fond memories of the original feeling shortchanged. It’s proof, too, that 3D can’t simply be tacked on as an afterthought.

Australian actor Sam Worthington’s having quite a ride. He’s been a futuristic Terminator, an Avatar on Pandora and now he’s a demigod on the warpath.

A popcorn movie that reaches back to the fantasy epics of old and forward into the digital future, where the word "unimaginable" no longer exists

Empire Magazine
Poorly written nonsense, but lovers of beefcake action will be happy enough with the heroes gymnastically vaulting monsters and slicing and dicing their way around the ancient world. An extra star for Ralph Fiennes, who is a god.
