Have we not seen this before?

 Wrath Of The Titans 3D movie poster.

‘Wrath of the Titans’ is the sequel to “Clash of Titans”. The movie promised so much and delivered so little.
Wrath of the Titans is similar to Clash of the Titans, actually it’s the same plot, the film makers just added a few new faces, changed the dialogue and changed the threat that threatens to end life as they know it.

If you had not watched Clash of the Titans this movie would have been a great movie to watch. The movie suffers from “the hangover” syndrome.

There is nothing spectacular about Wrath of the Titans, the movie does not grab you, you sit there feeling like “I have seen this before” you would have more fun talking to your date (if you brought one along).
The film makers where just unimaginative and pulling a fast one on the thriller hungry public, the nerve of them to make people pay for the same movie twice
Perseus goes on a quest in search of something, he finds a friend(s) to help, they get into trouble, they escape, they find what they were looking for and then he has to get back in time to stop the godly monster before it does real damage and he stops the monster in its tracks. Yeah, that’s the whole plot of both movies in a nutshell.
We keep being palmed all this sequels that do not live up to the first movies reputation. I will not deny that the first TITANS movie ended on a sour note, but it was entertaining, it was not so entertaining that you would want to see it twice. Movies such as Wrath of the Titans help us escape our everyday lives and we like that, but we can’t keep escaping to the same place all the time.

  4. I would not mind watching the movie but you have already biuilt a perception that it is same as a the first one, meaning boring. Your views are contradictory to the movie.

    1. it is extremely similar to the first movie. the only way to truly enjoy the movie is to forget ever watching the first one if you have, and if you have not then i suggest you watch the second one before you watch the first. pull a "HANGOVER PART 2" on it
