Just like others said: the movie has nothing to do with the books! Event though usually the books are better than the movies, in this case the movies are a great embarassment for the books. The movie team could do better with so many little details that count very much!

In order to restore their dying safe haven, the son of Poseidon and his friends embark on a quest to the Sea of Monsters, to find the mythical Golden Fleece, all the while trying to stop an ancient evil from rising. Back in 2013 i actually went and see Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters and i loved it, now does the film hold up 4 years later? Oh you can bet on that, i enjoyed the performances of both Logan Lerman and Alexandra Daddario in both films and i loved Douglas Smith performance as Tyson Percy's half brother. The film packs a lot of adventure and some good looking cgi and good performances by the young leads, the soundtrack is also great and although a bit slow and some jokes don't land all the time the film picks up fast and has a lot of action and i loved the scene with the Bull and Percy or when Kronos showed up it's not perfect but it's not as awful as everyone suggested.

I had watched the first movie without knowing anything of the characters and stories in the book and found myself really enjoying the first film so I was really excited to watch the next in the series.The story continues with Percy Jackson and friends back in camp. Percy is worried about his legacy compared to Clarisse, his competitive camp mate who is making a name for herself in the demigod world. When their camp is attacked and the barrier is weakened, Percy and his friends go on a mission to retrieve the Golden Fleece they think will restore the barrier. Percy also has to deal with a half-brother he never knew existed.What a disappointment it turned out to be. The film was boring, it dragged too much and it suffered from the lack of star power that enhanced the first film. There is Stanley Tucci as Mr D, God of Wine etc who I thought made the film a lot less dull especially when his wine was turned into water by Zeus for a misdeed he committed. Anthony Head pops up in the Pierce Brosnan role and does as good a job as he can with the script. Ron Perlman is one of the voices, although you don't see him on film. The one actor I struggled with was Nathan Fillion as Hermes. Love him in Castle but I just didn't think he was any good in this.It is a shame that it lost it's way through mostly the script and as there has been no mention of a third film, this movie has stopped anymore being made so far.

Gone was the magic, gone was the adventure. ..replaced by silliness of the highest caliber, with what appeared to be a pathetic attempt to make up for such a lackluster film, with CGI.From dead Confederate soldiers, to what I *think* was supposed to be a new twist on the Stygian Witches, this movie was a nightmare from the get-goThe only positive thing I can say about this disaster is that, at least all the main important characters from the original, reprised their roles (except Chiron) and if it hadn't been for that, this movie wouldn't have been worth suffering through for even fifteen minutes, let alone the whole thing.Avoid, at all costs, avoid.
