Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters Review – Harry Potter
and the gang continue their journey….eh wait a minute, salah movie pulak!
Although I had a dejavu feeling following Percy Jackson, his half-brother
Tyson, besties Annabeth and Grover trying the look for a ‘cure’ that is killing
their earlier dead friend, Thalia pine tree that is protecting the Olympians
from being killed by evil forces. Unfortunately some of the Olympians have
turned into ‘death eater’ eh I mean dark side.

See what I mean? It’s like Harry Potter but it’s
not Harry Potter. Heck they even have this bad arse villain, Kronos who have
been ‘banished’ but is being revived by Luke (yup…much like Malfoy reviving
Voldemort). Percy rides of Hipokampus into Sea of Monsters (it was Hippograf in
Potter series) to stop Kronos. Perhaps I just miss Hermoine and Ron ey? The
gang travel though modern and mythical settings in order to stop the resurrection
of Kronos. Throw in some CGI and teen lines with little adult supervision
(Stanley Tucci as Mr. D) plus some
father and son conflict, a friend scarifying herself to save her friends and a
slight twist in the end you got a full fledge flick for the new age group
target.

The repeat cast for this movie, Logan Lerman shows some promising talent to carry
on the torch as Percy for a few more sequels together with the rest of the cast.
I’m not sure how many books are there for this series but so far, it’s been
entertaining…and let’s hope it stays on course till Percy figures out what he
had to do when he reach 20 years old.

Till
then enjoy the ‘exotic’ creatures being thrown at each upcoming adventure Percy
Jackson has to undertake. Joined by his other Godly friends defending the Earth
from whatever mishap waiting to happen. He is no Harry Potter but he will do
for now till the next boy wonder takes over the big screen.
