Title: What a waste
Review: As a number of other people have said, I get that changes must often be made in order to bring a book to the screen. But why these changes? An enjoyable mythological romp was turned into a fairly bland teen action movie. And even on that score it fails. The young actors actually manage to do surprisingly well; it's the older ones who tended to fail. Sean Bean was shockingly bad as Zeus, the actor playing Poseidon only a little better. Brosnan might as well have been a block of wood. Only Steve Coogan and Uma Thurman managed to have some dignity (and that's debatable). It's too bad the changed plot made no sense. Starting a war was going to achieve the titular thief's goals...how exactly? Never mind, we'll just create a new action setpiece out of nowhere and hope the gee-whiz water effects dazzle. Perhaps under a another director the movie might have had a chance, but it's clear Columbus didn't get the material.
