What is Zeus without his bolt?ĭirector Chris Columbus has fun with this goofy premise, but as always I am distracted by the practical aspects of the story.Logan Lerman and Alexandra Daddario not reprising their roles “We love Logan and Alexandra and they’ve been wonderful as our two main leads in the first two movies.” UPDATE, 16:43 EDT, 7/19/15: Please note that this article was an April Fool’s Day joke, posted on 4/1/15. That's what he does, hurl that lightning bolt. You can understand why Zeus is so upset about losing his lightning bolt. They had no personalities to speak of, but simply went about doing what they did. It's one of my weaknesses that I was never able to work up much of an interest in the Greek gods, who made for discouraging fiction because they were entirely defined by their attributes.

Why, when or how he allegedly might have done so begins as a mystery to Percy, but eventually the situation leads to slam-bam special-effects sequences, as the gods and demigods do battle. Zeus ( Sean Bean) and Poseidon ( Kevin McKidd) meet atop the Empire State Building to discuss Zeus' missing lightning bolt, which he believes Percy, Poseidon's son, has stolen. After learning of his real identity, he goes off to Chiron's demigod training camp with Grover, and he becomes friends with Annabeth ( Alexandra Daddario), a demi-goddess if ever I've seen one. Percy, for example, thinks he is dyslexic, but it's only that his eyes instinctively turn English into Greek letters. The movie, based on a novel by Rick Riordan, has fun working out modern parallels for Greek mythology. Give Brosnan a lot credit for wearing the back half of a horse as if he'd been doing it for years.
Brunner ( Pierce Brosnan), who is actually Chiron, a centaur. Jackson), who is revealed as a sort of assistant demigod assigned to watch over him. Poseidon was the god of the sea, you will recall.
Percy finds he can think best when underwater for 10 minutes at a time.
