Clash of the Titans

This is a movie about some characters who are almost heroic. Fighting against Gods who seem like they should be awe-inspiring. Engaging in battles that are sort of exciting. And a story line that at times could be dramatic.

I want movies like this to succeed. And man, the material, can you get any better? Man vs. Gods. Great stuff. Medusa. Zeus. Etc., etc. You could tell they were really trying to embody all that was great about the Lord of the Rings, and you can see how they could have maybe attained it, but they fell short, far short, on just about every level.
