Clash of the Titans (1981)
Director: Desmond Davis
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Old style monster-and-mythology movie, made with the entrancing splendour of Ray Harryhausen's visual effects (the Pegasus flights) and the occasional cynicism which results from under-using and abusing a star cast. Perseus (Hamlin) and Andromeda (Bowker) are as boringly lovely as classical hero/ines should be, and even the scaly Kraken looks too dazed to bite Bowker in half.Author: JS
