Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief (2010)

Summary: Percy Jakcson, a boy diagnosed with dyslexia and ADHD, discovers one day that he is the son of Posidon. What more, it is of the gods belief that he has stolen the lightning bolt beloning to Zeus (bad) and therefor his mother has been taken by Hades (very bad). So, he have to master his powers, save his mother AND find the lightning bolt.

Percy and co.

One of the most comical films I have ever seen but the ending was really bad and simpel compared to the complicated story. Seariusly, the demigods are trained to become soldiers, leaders and heroes of the world, by using ancient greek tecknickes. Sword, bow and arrows ... it has been over 2000 years! I do not think that modern soldiers are menat to use swords or anything like that. 
I would hae liked it a bit more if the demigods trained more with their powers, if more demigods had been introduced and not just three (Percy counted) or if the gods had been living incognito in the modern world, like they meet up with Hades and he owned some sort of exclusive club (he did look like some sort of rocker) or they meet Zeuse and he was a big shot CEO in a big tower that was the modern Olympus.

Oh, my ... what happened with my hair?

On the other side, it is some fun when the old meets the new, like Medusa and an iphone, Karon and the modern american money or the flying sneakres and that the son of Hermes appears to be the one in the demigod camp with modern world tecknology. Another good thing was the referenses to the greek mythology, like Persephone asking her husband what he would do if she did not come by pointing out that she already was in hell.

Gods; no parenting classes for them

Not to say to much about the conclusion, but the real thief, like father like son (check up the father of the thief when you have seen the movie). That the children are similar to their parent is also seen in many scenes, for exampel all daughters of Afrodite are beautiful and the girl that Percy are interested in is the daughter to the goddess that his father in a way likes and is liked by. It also appears as if all the demi-gods has problem with their god-parent becouse of the rule that they may never meat thir half-blooded children. Seriously, gods can never raise demigods right.
