Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Pretty Fun and Entertaining Film

This film touches on nothing we aren't already familiar with, including the legend of Medusa, the Hydra, and Zeus vs Hades, but it is fun to see Greek mythology clashing with modern settings, such as Nashville or Las Vegas. The cast is likable and there are some familiar faces that pop up, including odd cameos from Uma Thurman and Rosario Dawson. The special effects are impressive and though the film doesn't tread any new ground, it's a fun and entertaining romp that makes up for lack of originality with pure energy.
