Critics Consensus

Its 3D effects are an improvement over its predecessor's, but in nearly every other respect, Wrath of the Titans fails to improve upon the stilted acting, wooden dialogue, and chaos-driven plot of the franchise's first installment.

The Age (Australia)

Amid the fast-moving chaos, it gets a little repetitive: there's so much volcanic action, so much fire and brimstone that all that heat might leave you cold.

Rated: 2.5/5

What it lacks are the very elements that made the first movie such a surprise: wit and nerve.

The problem with a film that uses CGI as a substitute for good writing is that virtually every picture that comes along nowadays has impressive visual effects; this has leveled the playing field, to say the least.

Rated: 2.1/2

Deep Focus Review

In true big-budget sequel tradition, every moment fails to live up to the original.

Rated: 1.5/4

It has some nice eye candy and a few pretty cool moments, but it lacks the kick and the grit of the first film.

While it suffered from the same flaws as the first one, I still really enjoyed the movie. It had a lot of great action sequences and it was really fun to watch. I definitely recommend it for fantasy and mythology fans!

These Clash of the Titans sequences are very predictable and pathetic, they want to focus on just entire CGI scenarios and leave the great story aside. Rating 3.0

I think the last 10 minutes were written by an illiterate 2nd grader as part of a school project.

While not a great movie the special effects and make up were solid. There was good acting anad engaging characters but the movie pointed out that wars a dirty things that leave winner and loser in need of a good scrubbing.

Wrath of the Titans is bigger, bolder, and more emotionally resonant than its predecessor, delivering a powerful gut punch. Where the first film held back, this sequel goes for the jugular. Perseus is a more fully realized character, Ares proves to be a far more formidable and ruthless villain than Hades, and Kronos emerges as a standout movie monster - picture a walking volcano. The film's biggest, and possibly only, failing is that Kronos isn't given enough screen time.
