Résumés(1)
La dernière bataille pour le pouvoir met en scène des hommes contre des rois et des rois contre des dieux. Mais la guerre entre les dieux eux-mêmes peut détruire le monde. Né d'un dieu mais élevé comme un homme, Persée ne peut sauver sa famille des griffes de Hadès, dieu vengeur du monde des Enfers. N'ayant plus rien à perdre, Persée se porte volontaire pour conduire une mission dangereuse et porter un coup fatal à Hadès avant que celui-ci ne s'empare du pouvoir de Zeus et fasse régner l'enfer sur terre. A la tête d'une troupe de guerriers courageux, Persée entreprend un périlleux voyage dans les profondeurs des mondes interdits. Luttant contre des démons impies et des bêtes redoutables, il ne survivra que s'il accepte son pouvoir en tant que dieu, qu'il défie son destin et crée sa propre destinée. (Warner Bros. FR)

Critiques (13)
De divins seigneurs, habitant des intérieurs semblables à ceux d'un film porno bon marché, envoient deux personnages "effrayants" - un handicapé tout droit issu de l'univers Star Trek et une méduse en CGI avec le visage d'un mannequin - pour empêcher la version moderne de Chuck Worthington Norris de perturber un dîner du Kraken façon King Kong. Si Leterrier est vraiment un fan de l'original de 1981 et le porte dans sa tête et son cœur, il devrait à minima envisager une greffe de cerveau. JEREMIE

You won't find a better on-screen adventure for miles, but the bad thing is that this is a remake of a cult classic that definitely didn't deserve this level of editing. Leterrier likes action, which is decently underscored by Djawadi's aggressive bass, but unfortunately, he layers it into a completely nonsensical and UNINTERESTING whole that relies on visuals from The Lord of the Rings and a frantic pace that simply BORES with its perpetual asking of logical questions! Without the badasses Mikkelsen and Cunningham and the beautiful Arterton, there would be absolutely nothing to see here.

Dumb, but not dumb enough to be at least be funny. Several video game levels with legendary Greek monsters that could be described as follows: I’m going somewhere → I kill a monster → I get some clues → I carry on. The monsters look pretty nice and so do the settings (you can see the budget), but the filler and the dialogues are lethal, with Perseus et al. constantly philosophising about their semi-godly nature, almighty Zeus almost breaking a branch under his own weight, Bubo rolling somewhere in junk and Andromeda pragmatically letting herself be eaten. That’s almost all of it. Worthington has nothing to work with, his Perseus is mentally a teenager and not a hero to whose hands I’d be willing to entrust my destiny. The gods shine weirdly, which instead of divine looks cheap, and certainly doesn’t give the impression that they lord over the world. The climax never had a chance to save the film and the last scene actually buries it. 45%

When the remake of Clash of the Titans was announced some time ago, a large part of the audience rejoiced that in the new version, Perseus' story would be more than just a fairy tale embellished mainly by nostalgia. It would be visually attractive, adequately action-packed, or refreshingly adventurous. But when the remake came to theaters, the original film suddenly became an untouchable Hollywood legend, and the special effects that had seemed ill-fitting in your childhood memories became a pleasantly old-fashioned bit of creativity. For me, the original will remain a pleasant reminder of bygone years, but Louis Leterrier's version is a different story altogether. Perseus as a vengeful and determined warrior, his companions more than just an anonymous group of helpers, the beautiful Io, and above all, the entire second half of the film that doesn't give you a moment to breathe, turning attractive popcorn into an unforgettable journey through Greek mythology. Although this battle with the gods is far from flawless (it took me a while to get into the pacing until Perseus sets off from Argos), I am as willing and happy to watch adventure blockbusters as I am to watch Greek myths.

More than a remake of Clash of the Titans, this is more an abortive attempt at adaptation of the computer fight game Titan Quest. P.S.: It is very telling that the only (yes, the only!) bright moment was thanks to the weakest link of the original (yes, the owl).
