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.

3.25 stars. Great special effects that I wish could see in 3D. The mythology here starts before the gods began & demigods end up saving the world.

I'm split on this one! In some ways I kinda prefer 'Wrath of the Titans' to its predecessor, though in other ways it is a downgrade. My positives include the pacing and the use of 'the gods', with both - in my opinion - better done in this 2012 film when compared to the 2010 original. The shorter run time helps, while Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes are far better utilised this time. My negatives include the story and (one or two) new cast/characters. The plot didn't really hold my attention very well, at a number of moments I felt my mind drift away from what was occurring onscreen. I wasn't bored or anything, though I could feel myself lose interest immediately after a scene that promised more than it delivered. As for the latter, Rosamund Pike and Édgar Ramírez are disappointing additions. With that said, Bill Nighy is a newcomer here and he actually entertained me - probably my standout character from this sequel. Toby Kebbell is a solid newbie too, to be honest. Elsewhere, Ramin Djawadi is missed on music but Javier Navarrete does a perfectly fine job in fairness. Naturally, I can only speak for myself and to me this is an average, if admittedly forgettable, flick - nought worse.

I actually liked the first one, this one ultimately decided the series fate, which is nowhere! But enjoyed the 3D cinematic effects, plot line was horrible and felt rushed! Also, did not enjoy the changes from the original. This was the one chance from the first movie to prove critics wrong and redeem themselves. However the project fell flat on its face and hopefully they do a remake or just leave the imagination for fans to the books and avoid screen production in terms of ruining the whole story or universe arc for fan fanatics and avid followers!

How do you kill Zeus(Liam Neeson) with a sandstorm? How can you do a remake based on 3d when the 3d is the worst thing of it?

Wrath of the Titans showcases one epic sequence revolving Zeus and Hades; the rest is a dull affair that is easily forgotten within the hour.

For those with a burning curiosity to know how The Lord of the Rings as directed by Michael Bay might look, Wrath of the Titans provides an idea.

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.

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

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