Jason and the Aronauts

     

Jason and the Argonauts

       I should recommend you all readers to watch this movie because you can learn good things here and for those who love adventures... I'm telling you, you'll love this movie.

       This movie is about Jason, heir of the kingdom of the Ancient Greece, he witnessed the murder of his father at the hands of his jealous and greed uncle Pelias. Jason's mother became the wife of Pelias. Jason wanted to get his mother back from Pelias in one condition, he should get the Golden Fleece and bring it back to Pelias. So Jason searched for his crew and he named it the Argonauts. They traveled into many places they've never went to, faced many circumstances and challenges with the help of Hera, the wife of Zeus and the mother of Hercules, one of his crew. They got the Golden Fleece, saved his mother and fulfilled his destiny with their perseverance, bravery and dedication.

       The actors did a wonderful job in playing their respective roles. They have shown what the watchers should see. They surpass the expectations of the watchers. Some of the actors are, Jason London as Jason, Olivia Williams as Hera, Dennis Hopper as Pelias and many more. I think the director has a good skill at picking his actors that will make what he wants to be seen in the movie.

       In the first set of scenes, they inserted flashbacks to understand more by the watchers. After each scene, they have dead part, the screen turns to black in a few seconds then next scene. They didn't focus on the sequence of scenes. They didn't end some scenes well. Also, they have a fast change and phase in the scenes.

          The background music is somehow not appropriate in some scenes. For example, the scene where Jason is talking to a centaur, the background isn't that good and appropriate for the scene. They inserted only few sound effects which if they put more, scenes will be much better. Some sound effects can't be heard by the movie watchers.

       The nights scenes  are not that real, as if I saw light coming from a spotlight. They should somehow find the good angle in the night scenes so that it will be real. Some scenes have good camera angles and some don't have, for example the scene in the Argo, the ship of the Argonauts. The camera don't have some distance that the scene is so near to the camera. They should have used some technology to have the camera have the perfect distance and camera angle. Also in addition the the lighting, they make the inside-the-building scenes good, they didn't put lighting. They make the scene real.

          I think if will to rate this movie in a scale of 1-10, 10 being the highest I will probably give a rating of 8 because of some deficiency in some part of the movie. So, you already read my movie review of Jason and the Argonauts, will you watch this movie or not???
