I tried to summon my inner 12-year-old for this sequel, but even kids might object to the subversion of Greek mythology presented here…starting with the premise that the Gods of Olympus are losing their powers. That’s why Zeus (played again by Liam Neeson) asks his half-human son Perseus (Sam Worthington) for his help to keep the dark forces from taking over. Those forces are represented by Hades (a returning Ralph Fiennes) and his nasty son Ares (Édgar Ramírez), not to mention Kronos, the father of Zeus and Hades.
RT @leonardmaltin: 'Before Midnight' is never uninteresting…but it doesn’t flow as easily or seem as organic as the first two films http://t.co/6ZzpthAQRh

Ugh. Was afraid of that. MT @leonardmaltin: The Hangover 3 is a dreary, lamebrain comedy that ruins whatever fond memories we had of the 1st

It's rare that @leonardmaltin can't find something nice to say about a movie. Hangover 3 is one of those times. http://t.co/3vVxY7QiUa

Leonard Maltin is one of the few professional movie reviewers I really respect but for a slightly different take on Wrath of the Titans, please check out my review at amazon.com :o)

Barney, where have you been? From your description, you must be thinking of Gene Shalit. Leonard has always been more down to earth!

Found this site through a link from better site... wow, didn't know this guy was still alive and "reviewing" movies. Tough gig. Didn't he used to have a crazy afro and a bushy mustache?

Wow, Leonard needs a hug...I probably would agree with him, but I don't want to spend more jing on another poorly made film...Although, if it were robots...well..
Rewrite: Wolves are attacking the Gods in order to obtain their powers they must eat them..The title" The Zeus & The Grey,"...I like it...Instead,
I think I'll watch the 1958"Attack of the 50 ft. Woman." More substance, less special fx...
