One of the worst movies I've seen


I usually love most movies, and movies that everyone doesn't really like, but wow...this one was one of the worst movies I've seen, I don't even know how it was made so recently. I caught this on a day when I was bored at home and this movie happened to be on one of the movie channels I subscribe to. It was so boring, and it never seemed to go anywhere. The story was flat all the way through and I just didn't care about the characters. But that's not even my biggest gripe about this. I don't know what the budget was, but the cinematography and vfx were some of the worst I've seen in a movie like this to date. Everything looks like it was shot on a stage with horrible green screen and there was no scope to the movie at all. Everything was shot so close up all the time that there was no world to make this movie believable. You could tell that the main dude's village was just a tossed up selection of extras roaming about aimlessly on a stage somewhere and for some reason, the part where they find those psychic girls in that place in the desert seemed also like it just wasn't anywhere? I don't even know how to explain it..I couldn't picture the world that they were supposed to be in, which made the movie seem like it was shot during the star trek days (obviously not that bad, but it's like they drew inspiration from that type of set up) Anyway, my whole family thought it was a joke and couldn't believe that this movie was actually, seriously, filmed and produced and neither could I. I won't even rate it, because it doesn't even deserve 1 star. Also, Henry Cavill is pretty to look at, but a terrible actor. Although it's weird because I remember liking his acting in The Tudors, but in this movie and Man of Steel, he just...plain sucks. So yeah. I guess that's my review.

Yes indeed. It is pretty bad. It's one of those movies where you can almost feel everything is on a stage or green screen. Weird!

I just tried to watch it after lasting less than 10 minutes the time. I think i maxe it to a out 40 minutes tonight and still was scratching my head about the story and dialogue. Then i said why the blank am i watching this and turned it off. The Clash of the Titans remake was dreadful but at least its effects were good, especially the Kraken.

JC !!!!! Are you guys for real ? This worst film ever , really ? I take your a bunch of kids or wannabe critics , this has to be one of the most astonishing movies made this year , I cured you lot that gave it a poor score have never read the Greek classics , this was totally faithful to the mythology . I'm guessing why these idiots didn't rate it : I keep hearing about non-sensical sets etc i.e. The sibbaline monastery , the fight with the titans and on and on .... there all metaphors you ignorant Tw*ts , awesome acting , with awesome sets , and amazing SFX , make this a truly unlike any other swords n sandals movies .. unless of course your 12 or never read about Greek mythology , an all round beautiful 2 hours of pure escapism , well done tarsim Singh another truly awesome and unique movie ... please don't change your movie making for idiotic and childish critisim !!! ????
