Wrath of the Titans: Press reviews

'if studio sequels operate by the law of diminishing returns, then Wrath Of The Titans is the rule-proving exception.'

'Forget the story: there barely is one'

'a sword-and-sandals romp that betters not only its predecessor but even the 1981 original ‘Clash of the Titans' for engaging and boyish silliness. '

'If even a tenth of the care and attention lavished on the production design and action sequences had been afforded the script, this could have been an adventure of legendary proportions. As it is, this fizzles whenever anyone opens their mouths.'

'Better than its successful but fairly dire predecessor'

'not much to think about when the dust clears.'

'stately, stodgy, neo-Harryhausen blockbuster'

'not terrible: but certainly a bore'

'Why set a film around the great Greek myths then not actually use those stories? Instead this mess of clunky dialogue and half-baked ideas has been created.'

'Director Jonathan Liebesman has scaled some kind of inverse personal Everest by producing a franchise entry that manages to be even more incompetent, more nauseating and more irrational than the dangerously unloved Clash.'

'loud, dull, hyperactive'

'...titanically awful.'

'as clattery and joyless as its predecessor'

'It is not a good film'
