Clash of the Titans - 6/10. More or less what I expected. It actually started out much better than I thought it would, but it quickly went downhill.
The production value of it was the biggest strength. They tried to apply Lord of the Rings sized moviemaking to the original story, but it didn't really work out.
The action was okay, but with a weak story and characters, it doesn't have much behind it. The thing that made the original enjoyable was more the stop-animation work of Ray Harryhausen than anything, and obviously that has been traded in for abundant CGI. Good effects, but not the type of monsters I want to see.
