Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters

Greek mythology returns in "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters", the sequel to 2010's "The Lightning Thief". Based on the novels by Rick Riordan, the series puts a spin on the rich mythology by blending it with modern society, which is kind of interesting.

This franchise is based on an interpretation of ancient Greek mythology (albeit a loose, confusing and not that intelligent interpretation). The concept is intriguing.

I wanted to like this movie. No, that's wrong I wanted to LOVE this movie.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief was a pleasant surprise. For me that movie came out of nowhere and I found it to be pleasantly entertaining.

First thing, let me just say I have read all the PJO and HOO books and I must say, what a fantastic series! Applause to Rick Riordan.

This movie is so ridiculous it contains almost nothing from the book, they should give the title character a new name and make it jersey Thompson and the sea of monsters because other than the character's name and the basic story line there is nothing in the movie that is common with the book. Clarisse is not the one selected for the quest for golden fleece in the book but miraculously she appears in the second movie without any mention about her in the first one and goes on the quest and then gets stuck on a ship with "Zombies" in the Sea of monsters.

Just for the record, I have read all the books multiple times and I understand that the movie won't follow the book completely.But they could at least follow the story line a bit more.

First, there are no memorable scenes. I don't know what's the point of this movie.
