Movie Review: "Clash of the Titans"

Seen on: March 30, 2010

The players: Director: Louis Leterrier, Writers: Travis Beacham, Phil Hay, Matt Manfredi, Cast: Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Raplh Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen

Facts of interest: Leterrier also helmed "The Incredible Hulk."

The plot: As the gods ruling the world are acting like rebellious teenagers, Perseus is the only one who can battle the bad guys and prevent an ugly war.

Our thoughts: Louis Leterrier’s “Clash of the Titans” is one big, noisy mess of a movie I believe doesn’t deserve to exist. The film somehow managed to score a bunch of positive reviews from the nation’s top critics, and I’m still trying to figure out why. In my book, this is a lame adventure cursed with terrible dialogue, dragging pace and mediocre performances.

New 'Clash of the Titans' featurette has arrived

What I've seen of "Clash of the Titans" so far has really impressed me, and to tell you the truth, I am quite excited about the film's 3D release April 2, 2010. A new featurette is now online, so watch it below.

"Clash" is a sort of "Percy Jackson" for adults, and the film follows Perseus (Sam Worthington) who is helpless to save his family from Hades (Ralph Fiennes), the vengeful god of the underworld.

With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to rescue a charming princess and defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus (Liam Neeson) and unleash all hell on earth.

Mads Mikkelsen, Alexa Davalos, Liam Neeson, Danny Huston co-star in the flick directed by Louis Leterrier ("The Incredible Hulk"). In this clip, the cast briefly chats about the film's central characters.

'Clash of the Titans' reshoots and going 3D?

Sam Worthington's next film is an adventure epic titled "Clash of the Titans." It is directed by Louis Leterrier and will open March 26, 2010. It will also do more shooting, and it may end up being shown in 3D.

The Los Angeles Times recently spoke with Worthington, and the actor said Warner Bros. increased the budget for the flick, enabling the filmmakers to go back out and shoot more footage.

"We're going to be going back and shooting more scenes for it, they cut loose with some money so we can add to it," Worthington said. "We're going to be shooting more scenes in January..."

This is not the only news he spilled. He said, "The studio is also letting us add some gods and scenes. And they're talking about making the movie a 3D film." Sounds nice, considering the trailer looks awesome.

First official 'Deathly Hallows' image debuts!

Earlier this year, we got a first but rather lame first look at Daniel Radcliffe in David Yates upcoming "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I," which is slated for a Nov. 19. 2010 release.

The folks at USA Today now provided the first official photo from the first part of the last "Harry Potter" flick, and you can see it above. It's not exactly a compelling shot. Ron seems much taller though, no?

Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Brendan Gleeson, Helena Bonham Carter and Alan Rickman return in the sequel, and as you know, "Deathly Hallows" will be divided in two parts, with No. 2 opening July 15, 2011.

Teaser for 'Nanny McPhee' sequel hits

A first teaser trailer for Susanna White's upcoming sequel "Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang" has debuted on the Web earlier today, and you can check it out after the jump. It's short, so don't expect much.

In the follow-up to the 2005 family flick, Emma Thompson returns as the strict nanny who uses magic to get energetic kids under control and battle a villain while she's at it. The film opens in 2010.

As you can see below, the teaser is short and doesn't give us much story. It does gives us flying pigs though, and to be honest, that's not exactly stunning. I hope the "Big Bang" has more in store for us.

That said, count me among those who highly enjoyed the first film. It was goofy and fun, heartfelt and innovative, and it's something I can easily watch again. Plus, Emma Thompson is great, as usual.

Daily news dose: 'Year One' gets PG-13; Neeson, Fiennes join 'Clash of the Titans'

Here's your dose of film news for April 11, 2009:

• Harold Ramis' upcoming comedy "Year One" finally received a PG-13 rating following some cuts, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The film stars Michael Cera and Jack Black as lazy hunter-gatherers banished from their village. I saw the trailer a couple of times and never laughed once, so I will walk into this one with the lowest possible expectations. It looks terrible.

• Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes are set to star in Louis Leterrier's "Clash of the Titans." Neeson plays Zeus, father of Perseus (Sam Worthington), while Fiennes is on board to portray Hades. Mads Mikkelsen, Gemma Arterton and Alexa Davalos co-star. Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay wrote the script. (The Hollywood Reporter)

• That Sony is developing "Venom" is not exactly news, but here's the current project status: Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick have turned in a first draft and are waiting for a response. Reese said, "Then they had specific rules about the villain and the backstory and stuff like that, so there were certain things they wanted us... certain parameters they gave us." (ComingSoon)

• During his promotion tour for Joe Wright's upcoming "The Soloist," Robert Downey Jr. also spoke a bit about "Sherlock Holmes," due in theaters this December. Besides his desire for a PG-13 rating, the actor also said he thinks they're going to make a sequel if the first one scores. Read more at MTV.
