synopsis
The heroic Perseus battles strange creatures and overcomes fantastic challenges while the gods of Olympus argue over his fate in loose adaptation of several classic tales of Greek mythology. The film was critically lambasted for its awkward pacing and lack of originality, not to mention the sometimes embarrassing performances by Laurence Olivier and other distinguished veterans. However, Clash of the Titans nevertheless found some popularity amongst younger audiences, thanks largely to interesting (if inconsistent) special effects work from legendary stop-motion animator Ray Harryhausen.
