Percy Jackson and the Olympians - The Lightning Thief

Starring: Pierce Brosnan, Kevin McKidd, and Uma Thurman
Rating: PG

When the modern world collides with the mythical, Percy Jackson seems to live a normal life with the exception of his own special quirks. Blanking out in the middle of class, able to stay underwater for ten plus minutes, and furious with his mother for staying with her pig boyfriend, Percy finds himself confused with where life has taken him. Suddenly, in the middle of a museum tour, Percy is attacked by his teacher/monster from Hades, looking for a "lightning bolt". Percy's quest begins with his two friends to resuce his mom from the Underworld and tell Hades that he does not have the mysterious missing lightning bolt of Zeus.

This thunderous fantasy adventure will leave you bewildered with its fantastic special effects, clever, mythical storytelling, and its fun and heroic characters.

Would I watch this movie again? Yes
Would I buy this movie for my own collection? Absolutley
I would rate this movie 4 1/2 stars
