i really do enjoy this movie, even if it is cheesy at times. i havent read the books, i know nothing about percy jackson and very very little about greek mythology so this is very fun for me. im excited to see the next one and watch the disney series, i think ill watch both before i go for the books just so that i can enjoy them for what they are rather than what they could've been

i know nothing about pjo, i havent read the books or anything before. i loved this movie, had a lot of fun with it and i think logan carried the main role well. i wouldve liked to see more depth in the characters, but for a movie that had a lot to set up i think it did well. the emotional beats hit well and the graphics and cgi were great for the time. i liked it a lot.

I’m sorry but this will always be the best Percy Jackson like it so catching. I love groove he is literally amazing through the whole film. Also Percy and Anabeth are so adorable like just fuck already. Luke and the stepdad where dick like fuck off nobody want you here. My favourite scene was when Percy was like ‘don’t talk to my mum like that you bald headed freak’ I was like shit. GO PERCY I literally say it all the time now 😂 😂 😂. Anyways the mum is so strong man to deal with the stepdad to hide Percy’s scent or whatever his whole life she protected him like #best mum in the world award. But I’m sorry Luke did all this cause what he wasn’t love enough like seriously we get you have daddy issues don’t take it out on the world. But yeah. To be honest the casino scene was so weird like I was so creeped out imagine if they never figured it out they would of be stuck there for ages. I also Loved the scene when Percy first used his power to heal himself and when they were at the hotel and groove held medusas head up and the lady saw that was hilarious. Anyways I’m going to watch the next one while you watch this one.

What a good entertaining and well done movie that follows a Demi-god who discovers his true existence in a time of crisis and is flung into action to save the world from a god war. The plot development and back story lead up is really cool as they mask it behind several surface plot points that make the film seem like something else. The lead up to the main premise is a bit rushed so the 2 other main characters plot development doesn’t make the audience like them as much. But all in all the action, drama and conclusion are entertaining.

Pretty fun fantasy/adventure. An enjoyable mix of Harry Potter and Clash of the Titans. You don't see much Greek mythology in these types of movies, so that was refreshing.

A pretty decent movie, just not the book. It also would have been better if Columbus put in the effort he put into Harry Potter. Doesn’t help that the budget is probably much smaller.
Hopefully the new Disney + series is better.

When I was younger, I remember watching this film over and over again. It was one of the only films I would sit through the entirety of. Now watching it as I'm older I see the flaws that I was blind as a child.

First off, a am a massive fan of the Rick Riordan books and know that this first adventure is meant to focus on Percy, Annabeth, and Grover, as they are around the region of 12 years old. But they got 20 year olds to play those characters, I must admit that the cast they picked were amazing in their roles but if I had no knowledge of the book it was based off then I would of said they were all about 16 at the youngest. Also, with them meant to be 12, it would of sent out immediate red flags to me that something was going on if I was allowed in to a casino at that age. How did they not know something was going on? I understand that this is an issue that carries on over from the book so I completely understand why they kept it as it was.

Having said those criticisms however I do still think this is a great movie, especially considering the age range it is aimed at. There are some funny and slightly scary moments to the eyes of a child but still very enjoyable!
