Review of Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (2013) by Itslolciano — 04 Sep 2014

It doesn't really matter if you red the book series or not. As a huge fan of the books, I red all of them at least twice, and I have to admit: this movie was a fiasco. It feels like either they didn't have enough time to plan the movie or simply weren't prepared for it.

The movie just throws characters at you and tries to establish a relation between them and the story. It's ridiculous. Also, they changed the story in a way that you are not able to actually enjoy it if you read the book.

The only thing that saves the movie from having a 4 or 0 score is the way that scenes are made. It feels like they] did their best to make the movie look very cinematic and epic; however, even though it is indeed epic, you can't pay attention to the epicness due to the badly written story.

If you didn't read the book - I highly recommend you to read it - , you may find the movie enjoyable, but not as the first movie was. PJ fans, if you didn't watch this movie before, don't watch it now.

The first one is better.
