I'm a huge Harry Potter fan and there have been plenty of fantasy novels that have tried to copy the success of Harry Potter to no avail. Percy Jackson is the latest of these novels. I had no idea of these stories, but the director was the first director in the Harry Potter films, so I knew it could be alright. Although not near as great as the Harry Potter films, this is still an entertaining movie that has some hope. The characters and story isn't flushed out enough and it's a very fast paced movie that will keep you watching.
Percy Jackson finds out that he is Poseidon's son and he is framed for stealing Zeus' lightning bolt which could start a war between the gods if it's not returned. Percy starts a quest with some friends that takes him cross country to go to hell and rescue his mom.
I'd say almost everyone will enjoy this fast paced movie and hopefully it will have the sequels to follow.
