Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters
Stream
Rent & Buy
In their quest to confront the ultimate evil, Percy and his friends battle swarms of mythical creatures to find the mythical Golden Fleece and to stop an ancient evil from rising.
What critics thought
Critics broadly panned the film as derivative and overstuffed, though younger audiences were more forgiving. The sharpest disagreement was between those who felt its straightforward plotting was serviceable enough for its target demographic and those who saw it as a cynically mediocre franchise entry with a script that actively works against its characters.
“There are worse sequels than the CG-heavy Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, but it's just such overly familiar territory.”
Jim Vejvoda·IGN
“Sea of Monsters is diverting enough — the director, Thor Freudenthal ... is savvy with effects and keeps his young cast on point — but it doesn't begin to approach the biting adolescent tension of the Harry Potter movies.”
Andy Webster·The New York Times
“[Are] these characters merely prisoners — much like the audience — of a script so uninspired that it demands their stupidity?”
Connie Ogle·The Miami Herald
“a thoroughly second-rate franchise ... with movies like Sea of Monsters, it can probably continue in acceptable mediocrity for years to come”
