I haven’t written anything about this remake because frankly I didn’t know how good it would be. There just are so many remakes coming out nowadays that it’s too hard to try and keep up. The original Clash of the Titans was made in 1981 and starred Harry Hamlin, Maggie Smith, Lawrence Olivier, and Jack Gwillim in a film adaption of the myth of Perseus and his quest to battle both Medusa and the Kraken monster to save the Princess Andromeda.

I remember seeing this movie as a kid and falling in love with the simple but effective special effects of the Kraken and Medusa and even the golden owl…but this is not your mother’s Clash of the Titans! This is a Clash of the Titans film in the era of 300, Gladiator, Lord of the Rings, and Braveheart with fast action, rock music anthems, and sweeping CGI.

What do you think of the new remake? Is it ok that it’s a completely modernized version?
