Title: Great visual effects; crappy story
Review: Like many others, I read the five books before I saw the movie. (I'm an adult, but my nephew was reading them at the time.)My biggest gripe is the age difference. In the movie version, Percy is older at the start of the series than he was at the END of the fifth book.I don't really miss Dionysis or Ares, but I think Clarisse (daughter of Ares) was too important a character to be left out. I also don't like that the heroes weren't sent on a quest. Excuse me, but going on quests is what heroes do.Despite the fact that I would rather have seen a much younger actor play the lead, Logan Lerman was very good. Kevin McKidd's opening scene was much better than his closing one. Brendan T. Jackson, as Grover, also gave a good performance, but I didn't care for the sexualization of his role.The special effects and computer graphics were the movie's strong points.It wasn't a bad movie, but it wasn't a good movie, either.
