I watched this one in the cinema!

This movie is a adaptation of The Lightning Thief, the first novel in the Percy Jackson & The Olympians series by Rick Riordan!
A nice movie with nice special effect and funny scenes!
But simple plot took the storyline down!
Young main cast with oldies as co starring! ^^
Great work of Logan Lerman as Percy
He's only 18! My little brother is that too LOL
Nice appearance from Uma Thurman as Medusa! Creepy hair LOL

Sequel is coming in 2012 with the title Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Sea of Monsters

Summary:
It's the 21st century, but the gods of Mount Olympus and assorted monsters have walked out of the pages of high school student Percy Jackson's Greek mythology texts and into his life. And they're not happy: Zeus' lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect. Even more troubling is the sudden disappearance of Percy's mother. As Percy finds himself caught between angry and battling gods, he and his friends embark on a cross-country adventure to catch the true lightning thief, save Percy's mom, and unravel a mystery more powerful than the gods themselves
