Clash of the Titans is a fantasy adventure film is a remake of the same titled movie produced in 1981. This time the film was produced following the trends of today ie the 3D format. The movie this time worked by Louis Leterrier who successfully worked on films full of action types Transporter 2 (2005) and the Incredible Hulk (2008). The film stars young stars, Sam Worthington and Gemma Arterton as well as some senior stars like Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes.
It is said that after some time the god and goddess of power, some people getting sick with their presence. Temples and statues of gods and goddesses destroyed. Meanwhile, Perseus (Worthington) was a true fisherman child is a child god Zeus (Neeson). The entire family was killed by Perseus Hades (Fiennes), who was then the middle of a rampage to kill soldiers Argos for destroying a statue of Zeus. At court Argos, when the wrath of Hades again to say that the beauty queen daughter Cassiopea, Andromeda's the envy of the gods and goddesses. Hades gave an ultimatum to the people of Argos, when the full moon it will destroy the entire city except the princess they sacrificed to the Kraken, a giant monster who is said to fear the gods. A grudge against Perseus Hades heavy mission with his colleagues to find ways to kill the Kraken.

Talk remake of today is not separated from the action and visual effects. From the aspect of the story everything changed to support all this. If we compare with the original film, this time remake movie plot is quite simple, minimal characterization, and more emphasis on the search plots. This is but natural that this resulted in our emotional attachment to the characters to be weak unless of course Perseus. Important characters such as Io, for example, could have given enough background through the technique of flash-back sufficiently.
This is a note in his remake of this is the change in the plot and characters are very significant from the original movie plot. Poseidon and Hera are taking important roles in the original film is replaced by Hades. Role as a partner Perseus Andromeda replaced by a new character, Io. Important characters such as Bubo, the mechanical bird is removed while the flying horse, Pegasus does not have such a special place in the original film. In this remake of his Perseus god so easy to get weapons such as swords and shields, even though the Pegasus. While the original film Perseus with difficulty got it all. Again, all this clearly is an attempt to simplify the plot of the film by eliminating the many dialogue scenes and more action displays a more splashy.
Speak clearly the aesthetic achievements of his remake of this too superior. Setting and achievement of visual effects is more value this film. Argos palace interiors set up the beautiful scenery can give nuance "myth" the ancient Greek era. Visual effects are also capable of displaying the same thing as Olympus Palace exterior and Argos. While the achievement of visual effects need not doubt display for displaying the action scenes and figures of animals and monsters like Medussa, Kraken, a giant scorpion, to Pegasus. But even so for some reason the original film that uses stop-motion animation was much more frightening than its remake. Medussa and nest characters are presented in more creative and dynamic but not able to match the feel of "mystical" and the horror Medussa on the original film.
Clash of the Titans is a typical contemporary remake. A little talk, more action, comedy seasoning, and stunning visual effects. That's it. Appearances range of senior actors Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes also did not help much. Fiennes, who plays as Hades even acting like Voldemort. As a spectacle it's 3-D films are capable of representing something more. The rest of this movie is just entertainment film without the usual spirit of courage that became the original movie soul.
