Mark B A guilty pleasure of mine. A poor man’s epic adventure. I enjoy the practical stop motion. A lot of the superimposed images are pretty bad. My complaint is that the main character just drops everything when he needs to hold on to it. The helmet, the sword, the shield, the sword, the sword yet again and the bag. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/11/25 Full Review Yash B The original "Clash of the Titans" is a goofy movie but it is an enjoyable one. The special effects are reminiscent of a different era but I liked seeing them. The story has a lot of Greek mythology in it which made it an easy watch. I did feel it got a bit boring at times but the action scenes kept it enjoyable. Overall, this is very much a cheesy 80s action movie with over-the-top moments and it really hasn't aged all that well, but it was too good of a time to say it was truly bad.

Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Twiggy H A timeless classic throughout the years - with clever use of film making from decades ago (something some modern film truly lacks and could really do with keeping at). The acting is totally fine for what the film was depicting of an ancient mythical story. As much as ancient mythology stories go, it does however seem ridiculous that Hera doesn't just do the decent thing for EVERYONE and just punish Zeus for having caused so many problems - now that would justice, and i await that film to be made. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/24 Full Review Cees T Evil inconsistent gods. Why not stop Calibos yourselves and spare many innocent lives? 3/10 - No good. Watch Star Wars ep 4 instead. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/07/24 Full Review Blu B A Fantasy Adventure Cult Classic. It's suprisingly pretty well made all around despite flaws. The special effects by R.H. are pretty good overall especially in the second half with the Medusa and all. But other times like the seagull at the start and other times can be laughably bad and I can't imagine some of these looked good even in 1981, I mean Star Wars was out for 4 years at this point. lol But the stop motion has a lot of character to it and you can tell in lots of effects even the ones that don't look as good a lot of effort when into it and that still shows decades later. The stupid golden owl though....I can't. The costumes, sets, camerawork, locales are all memorable. Olivier and Harry are solid and Harry especially is suprising how good he is at being charming innocent but also quiet stoic as well. Meredith is good as well. The love interest isn't bad but a bit forgettable. This has a lot of charm to it with some bad acting at first but settles down once Olivier shows up. As said before the special effects sometimes are terrible but are terrible in a very charming way. This doesn't have a lot of action in it until the final 20 minutes or so and is really character driven and a bit of susense also. The Medusa fight was easily the best part. This also has barely any dialouge in the late second half and becomes very visually driven which works in it's favor. It comes out of nowhere but works mainly because there isn't much action until that point. Most of the problems are in the first half especially the very start. This kind of assumes you already know a lot about greek mythology and if you don't you'll be lost for a bit as this doesn't explain much. But once it stays focused on Perseus it's easy enough to follow and works! The charm really goes a long way here. Anyone who is a fan of fantasy films, anicent adventures, any actors in this, a fan of R.H., the director, or even sword and sandel epics will like this.
