It's kind of a shame these movies didn't do better at the box office. It seems like a fun series.
Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman), the half-blood son of Poseidon is feeling a bit like a one-hit wonder after having stopped the Lightning Thief. Fortunately, a bit of prophecy is revealed that Percy could be the only thing preventing the destruction of Olympus. He learns that his nemesis, Luke (Jake Abel), is after the Golden Fleece in order to raise the first of the Titans, Kronos (Robert Knepper). Percy and his friends have to beat Luke to the fleece in order to save everyone they know.
I do think this lacked a bit of the luster of the first movie but was entertaining enough to overcome that setback. Some of the set pieces were very nice and on the whole, the entire thing was very well imagined. Alexandra Daddario seemed to be phoning it in but Leven Rambin more than made up for her lack of charisma. Overall, not a total waste of time but I wouldn't rush out to buy a copy right this minute.
