Wrath of the Titans

Starring: Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, and Rosamund Pike   Directed by: Jonathan Liebesman Screenplay by: Dan Mazeau, and David Johnson      Greek mythology has come back to the big screen in this sequel to the epic Clash of the Titans (2010).      Perseus (Sam Worthington), the half-man, half-god, son of Zeus (Liam Neeson) is back and the world is in peril once again.  The walls of the underworld prison of Tartarus are falling apart, and there is fear that the powerful titan Cronus will break out, destroying the world.  Hades and Ares have captured Zeus and are draining his power so Cronus can break out.  Since the humans are no longer praying to the gods that once protected them, the gods are losing their power.  So now, it is up to Perseus to rescue Zeus and save the world from the wrath of Cronus.  This is no ordinary family dispute.      For the most part, the special effects and the fire effects are pretty good.  They aren't always realistic, but not cheesy either.  Th
