Clash of the Titans: Top Movie Review
In their epic battle with the Titans, the three Olympians - Zeus, Poseidon and Hades were provided the help of Kraken, the Sea Lord, by Hades. After their victory, the landmass was taken over by Zeus, the waters were to be ruled by Poseidon and Hades was tricked by Zeus into ruling the underworld. Centuries later, Spyros, a fisherman finds a coffin on the sea front and finds an infant with a dead lady in it. The infant is raised by Spyros as his own son and comes to be known as Perseus, well portrayed by Sam Worthington, who is a regular in the top 10 movies list.
A grown up Perseus and his family see some soldiers from Argos destroying Zeus's, the character essayed by Liam Neeson, a veteran of many top rated movies, statue and declaring war on him. Hades, a role played to perfection by Ralph Fieness, the trusted man for the top movies, in the form of Harpies kills many of the soldiers and the rest flee with Perseus, whose family has been wiped out in the battle. King Kepheus and Queen Cassiopeia of Argos, a kingdom under God Zeus, compare their daughter Andromeda, the beauty well etched in Alexa Develos, the first choice for such roles by the top 10 movies makers, to the Goddess Aphrodite and declare they are Gods. Hades destroys the remaining Argos soldiers and ages Cassiopeia to her death. Recognizing Perseus to be the Demigod son of Zeus, he declares to Argos king to sacrifice Andromeda before Kraken or see Argos destroyed. Messenger God Hermes informs Zeus about Perseus and urges him to accept him but Zeus refuses.
Perseus is imprisoned by the Argos King for he refuses to fight the Gods. In the prison he learns about his real parents, Acrisius, well played by Jason Flemyng, actor of many top movies and Danae, the portrayal well adopted by Tine Steplefeldt, a superb choice of the top movies, from a woman named lo, a difficult role easily done by Gemma Arterton, preferred artist of many top rated movies. He also learns that Hades is responsible for his family's death and killing Kraken would destroy Hades. He decides to join Argos in their search of Stygian Witches. Acrisius who's living in disguise as Calibos is given super powers by Hades to prepare him to kill Persues so that Hades can take revenge of the betrayal during the clash with Titans. In the forest Persues finds the sacred Sword of Olympus and Pegasus, the flying horses. Calibos fails in his attack to kill Persues and flees after he loses a hand in battle. After the battle Persues's wounds are healed by Sheikh Suleiman, Lord of the Djinns who join Persues in the battle against Gods.
Stygian Witches tells them that head of Gorgon Medusa will turn Kraken to stone. Only Persues survives after beheading Medusa and finds that Calibos has killed lo. With the Olympus sword he kills Calibos, who is transformed back to human form. Riding on Pegasus, Persues heads for Argos where Hades is preparing for the sacrifice. Persues turns Kraken to stone and saves Andromeda, banishing Hades to Underworld. Zeus offers him a place on Olympus and Andromeda proposes him to be King of Argos but Zeus is interested in living on Earth.
The film, directed by Louis Leterrier is loosely based on the Greek Mythology character of Perseus. Adaptation by Leterrier has been astonishing and the presentation mind blowing. The viewers are teleported to another world and seem to be lost in it without realizing it. Leterrier has pumped lot of energy, imagination and certain madness into the movie. The imagination is visible, the energy can be felt but the madness simply engulfs you. Go ahead and get involved.

DVD Review - Clash of the Titans (1981)
Based on one of the most famous classic Greek myths, Clash of the Titans is a delight for adults and children alike. Lawrence Olivier, Burgess Meredith, Harry Hamlin and Judi Bowker star in this immortal myth concerning the dangerous and timeless love of Andromeda and Perseus.
This dramatic adventure revolves around Perseus fulfilling his destiny, involving taming Pegasus, the last winged horse, capturing and beheading Medusa one of the last Titans, and answering a mysterious riddle in order to win the hand of Andromeda, the daughter of the Queen of Joppa, Cassiopeia.
Clash of the Titans reflects the Greek mythological characters well, with it's great casting of the starring roles. Lawrence Olivier was a perfect choice for the role of Zeus with his commanding voice and stern presence. His son, Perseus, played by Harry Hamlin, displayed a determined and daring character, with a compassionate side for all types of creatures and humans alike.
Moreover, Judi Bowker showed an elegant, yet sensitive character in her character Andromeda, that even sprinkled with bravery, could display terror with the best of them. Burgess Meredith, had a great characterization of an old playwrite, that while learning much wisdom from all his philosophy, still he retained a strong reverence for the mighty and mysterious Gods.
Much of the film focused on Perseus and his fellow Greek soldiers, fighting and just barely, winning the battles with the deadly creatures, such as Medusa with her head of snakes with venomous blood and a look that could turn any man or creature instantly into stone.
Calibos, played by Neil Macarthy, the doomed creature and competitor for the hand of Andromeda, was a dangerous mix of bull, lizard and man that had earlier been punished by Zeus for capturing and killing all the flying horses, except one, Pegasus. The animated hunched, cloven and massive disproportionate, muscular strength look of Calibos was chilling and quite a striking contrast to the handsome, perfectly formed, Perseus. During their first confrontation in the swamp realm of Calibos, both creature and man showed their fierce devotion for Andromeda, and how they differed not in battle, but in compassion.
The timeless myth continues, with the Greek legend directed towards several constellations said to have been placed in the night sky by Zeus himself, namely; Perseus standing with his sword raised, the beautiful, adorned Andromeda, the vain Cassiopeia looking in her mirror, and the brave, flying horse, Pegasus.
For a lot of fun and excitement, romance and adventure to strange, weird places, this classic Greek tale can capture the attention and admiration of both adults and children alike. Rated PG with some frontal nudity.
