stuartlhay-91360 I don't know. This movie was incredibly disappointing, I was a huge fan of Percy Jackson, and this threw a lightening bolt in the face of my love for it.

adonis98-743-186503 A teenager discovers he's the descendant of a Greek god and sets out on an adventure to settle an on-going battle between the gods. Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief is one of the few films that i got to see in theaters back in 2010 and to be honest i really did loved it especially the Greek Mythology and basically the whole adventure and special effects with the gods and all that. As far as perfomances go? everyone did a really good job especially Logan Lerman, Alexandria Daddario, Sean Bean, Uma Thurman and Pierce Brosnan. If you want something exactly like the book you'll hate it but on it's own is really fun although the 2nd one was better.

zacharycampbell-22681 The plot to the book is very good, but in the movie almost everything changes. For example, Clarrise and Ares aren't in the movie at ALL, Luke is the one who places the master bolt on his shield that he gives Percy (which isn't in the book at all), while in the book Luke steals the bolt, then gives it to Ares, who puts it in the bag that he gives Percy at a diner.If you HAVEN'T read the book, you will likely enjoy this movie. I give it a 7/10 stars, only because of how much I liked the book.

Elewis1195 Of-course, I didn't read the book. I know nothing about the original story. I only know the Movie version but it was fast paced, a solid, if formulaic story and fun, with a ton of great visuals and a sprinkle of Greek mythology.Daughters of Aphrodite, Centaurs and Satyrs. Vegas, loyal sidekicks, Persephone, and hell-hounds. What's not to like? If you haven't read the books, this is an entertaining, colorful, fast paced romp and worth a watch.
