Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Zeus, Poseidon, Hercules, Athena, Aphrodite. Do you remember those names?!.. Yupp, they are the God and Goddes according to the ancient Greek myth. Well, there is more.. such as Perceus/Percy, Luke, Annabeth? Ring a bell? Guess not… they are the Demigod, half-human and half God, they are the offspring of the God with their human wife/husband.
This story tells us about the adventure of Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman), Poseidon’s offspring, Groover (Brandon T. Jackon), a Saythr and Annabeth (Alexandra Daddario), Athena’s offspring in their conquest for the saving of Percy’s Mom from Hades (Steve Coogan), God of the Underworld. It all began when Zeus (Sean Bean), God of the Sun and Poseidon, God of the Sea involved in small dispute up in the Empire State Building asking who might have stolen the Lightning Bulb which is the most powerful God’s weapon created by Zeus. All along Zeus suspected that it was Percy who had stolen it. This has created a quarrel between Zeus and Poseidon. Zeus ordered him to bring the Lightning Bulb back before the War between Gods begin, a.k.a, the end of the world.
On the other part of the story, Percy just found out that he was one of the Demigods, for instance he able and like being in the water for a very long time, has the ability to cure himself by having water and most of all his ability to control the water. He was being protected by Groover all along. Hence, when trouble comes, this is when a Rufy and a Minotaur hunted him in order to get the Lightning Bulb, he was instructed to be at the Demigod’s camp, where there were plenty other Demigods. (Yupp, apparently God or Goddes often come to the earth to make out with human, hehehe.) In that camp Percy was taught on how to fight and develop his ability by Mr. Brutner (Pierce Brosnan), a Centaur who along the way told him about his background. On this camp is where he met Luke, another Demigod, Hermes’ offspring, who kind of helped him in bringing his Mom back from Hades lair in the Underworld by giving him a Treasure Map of the Three Magic Pearl location and also the Underwold location. He also gave him the Magic Shield where in it the Lightning Bulb being hidden by Luke all the time. So now, you have figured out who is the bad guy here.
In his journey of finding the pearl he, Annabeth and Groover met with Medusa (Uma Thurman), also with a five-headed beast in Nashville, a Lotus seduction in Las Vegas casino and also with Perseipon (Rosario Dawson), apologize for my lack of knowledge in spelling the God’s name. She was kept by Hades in his lair forever and have tried to escape from him forever,. Apparently she is one of the good guys.
In the end, there is a happy ending, where he could have his Mom back and get a chance to talk to his father, Poseidon, who had left him when he was only 7 months old.
Overall, this movie is one of the “just-ok” category movie especially when you are a kind of person who digs an adventure, myth, fantasy and also special ability/power type of movie.. And most probably there will be a sequel of the movie that I might look forward to, just to have a leisure time with my wife.
