Thanks for the heads up about Hunger games Chris!!
I'll pass on it!! I want to see
Wrath of the Titans 3DAbout the film::
====================================================
Of any film that has had a sequel green lit the remake of Clash of the Titans would seem an odd choice. It wasn’t a runaway hit, making a good
but not great box office elevated artificially with 3D ticket prices, but there’s enough Greek mythology to make another film. Fashioned into
Wrath of the Titans, the film feels about as vapid and shallow as the remake and franchise starter did.
Perseus (Sam Worthington) is now a father and a widower, a hero having slain the Kraeken years ago, and is now called upon by his father Zeus
(Liam Neeson) to save the world again. Hades (Ralph Fiennes) and Ares (Edgar Ramirez) are conspiring to free Kronos. People have stopped praying
to the Gods and with their power weakening it’s a deal to stay immortal. With Zeus trapped in the Greek version of hell, it’s up to Perseus and his
cousin and fellow half god (Toby Kebbell) alongside warrior queen Andromeda (Rosamund Pike) to save the world from the evil about to be unleashed.
This isn’t a real deep film in terms of plot or character development, much like the first, and if anything it’s just a retread of the first with slightly
better CGI. Perseus is still torn between the world of the immortal gods and that of men; he’s still coming to grips with it as well as his status as
the badass hero who saved Greece already but it’s nothing we haven’t seen already. From the action sequences to the film’s finale there isn’t anything
that is all that surprising.
Sam Worthington sleep-walking through the lead role once again doesn’t help the film. Perseus isn’t a well written role nor is it one that requires him
to do much but be an action hero and it shows. This is just enough to not be embarrassing but not enough to give the film any depth. But that sort of
describes both films so far: shallow. This film much like Clash of the Titans wants to be an ancient Greek blockbuster and nothing more.
As such it’s an a/v spectacle but doesn’t have any heart behind it; it feels like a really expensive Iron Maiden video instead of a film. You could probably
dub over “Brave New World” onto the film and not really lose much in terms of story-telling or character depth.
In terms of its visual stylings, though, the
film is fairly remarkable. The film is rumored to have cost over $150 million and it shows on screen. This is a film with some remarkable special effects and
Jonathan Liebesman shoots the film wonderfully.
The problem is that for all the effects in the film there’s nothing behind it. This is just Liebesman aping Michael Bay’s style, nothing more, and getting about
as much of a result as you can expect.
