Having read the book in the past few months, I was excited to see how it compared and followed the plot. While the movie was fantastic (and incredibly visually pleasing), I was disappointed by the lack of similar events between the book and the movie. Despite this fact, I really enjoyed the movie itself. Looking more into deleted scenes from the movie, I found a lot of the book plot (and what I thought were important events) had been filmed, but taken out.
I especially enjoyed what the creators did with the use of water and movement of it in the film. The special effects looked realistic and fantastic.
As a library person, I’m incredibly excited about this series and how it will introduce some kids to Greek Mythology past what they get in the classroom.
