Jason and the Argonauts

Jason and the Argonauts

     I recommend the readers to watch this movie because it teaches about many stuffs. Has a nice effects and it also teaches us "perseverance".

       This movie is about Jason London (Jason) who is ordered by King Pelias which is his uncle, to get the golden fleece to save his mother's life. Jason is claiming his rightful place as the King so King Pelias asked Jason to retrieve the golden fleece. If he gives him the Golden Fleece, he'll get his crown back and save his mother. So Jason made up his team called the Argonauts as the title says. They traveled far away and fought different kinds of barriers that stops them but because of Hera's help the wife of Zeus, they surpassed all protagonists who wants them get killed. and they got the Golden Fleece. I was guessing that the theme could be like, Perseverance is the key to success.

     I can say, all the characters gave justice to their roles. Like, you can really see who are they portraying. Like Jason London as Jason, Jolene Blalock as Medea, Dennis Hopper as King Pelias, Olivia Williams as Hera and Angus Macfadyen as Zeus. You can really feel it just by looking at their facial reactions or by how they act on camera. They really is giving their hundred percent on their roles. Im loving how medea does her "No-blink-for-how-many-minutes" thing. It just makes her look gorgeous and also Jason's pretty face and that innocent look. Just makes me watch the movie more.

Im so sleepy~

Since this is an old movie, they haven't invented some awesome scenes yet. Even though this movie is good, some of the scenes makes me sleepy. You know, the parts they're just talking about nonsense stuffs that isn't needed for the movie. I can say they have poor editing but sometimes we need to listen about the conversations because that's the part where they tell every detail we need to know about the movie.

Believe me, they used good effects in this movie. We know this is an old movie but the way they did the harpies, the skeleton soldiers, the metal bull, the rock who was said to be Poseidon, Zeus and Hera in the sky, the thunderbolts, the whirlwinds, the rocks who bang together. It just made the movie more awesome although we can see it's kinda fake. But still, some effects are nailed.

This movie do not have too much sound effects. Like they just have some winds, whooshing or water splashing this is more on special effects than sounds.

I guess you guys will already watch this movie. I really recommend this movie because we can learn a lot of Greek mythology here like they used almost all of the Gods & Goddess in the Greek Myths.
