Clash of the Titans is a type of film that doesn't get made that often anymore. A giant mythological, epic that isn't horrible (I'm looking at you, Troy.)I really enjoy watching old films and appreciating them for what they were. This movie was a spectacle. It had great animation and neat special effects. Watch the Medusa scene and tell me that isn't cool. It also has some wonderful overacting from some of the titans of cinema.
The story resembles some of Greek mythology in that all the names are fairly correct, but beyond that there are some vast departures. That however, is the nature of the movies, so I forgive it.
The best thing I can say about this film is that I wish I could see more of it in Hollywood today.
Pros: Animation, Epic, Actors
Cons: Mixed Myths, Acting

Hey...I thought Troy was great..
I agree, this is a fine film though I have not seen it in quite some time. You have inspired me to track it down and watch it again.
You bring up another good point in that Hollywood seems to be unable or unwilling (money?) to produce movies that are original and good anymore.
