Percy Jackson & The Lightning Thief movie review



 

The title is a little weird inst it? its too long..when i first heard of it i was what thief? 
haha, this story originates from a story book written by this guy called Rick Riordan as u can obviously read above..

in summary the story goes like this,


in the skies above in Olympus ( yes it sounds like the camera brand eh?), there are many Gods, like Venus of love and Athena of war and etc etc..the outstanding rulers are 3 most powerful brothers.


Zeus, the god of thunder and lightning



Poseidon the god of the water and seas



Hades the god of hell ( he looks like mick jagger more than scary hell guy)

and so, Poseidon apparently came down to earth 16 years ago, got hooked up with a mortal human and hence a demigod was born aka Percy Jackson. The conflict started when some rascal stole Zeus lightning bolt and everybody was going into war and humans in between would suffer blah blah blah..

 

quite handsome for a hero eh?

 

 still, the storyline is kinda fuzzy and unbelievable. hero goes to place, face challenges, defeats evil forces, gets his mom back and becomes hero of the world! TADA! quite childish i think. but we all love happy endings and a good laugh inbetween so this is a good movie to watch in ur spare time!

watch out for 2 funny characters the goat his protector (no picture found) and this witchy medusa who looks like she's got bad hair day- EVERYDAY! WAKAKAKAKAKAKA!!

hint: look into her eyes of and turn into stone. apparently she's into I-phones as well. ;P

RATING: 8/10- 
(good visual, sound and editing effects)
