Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief (also known as Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief) is a 2010 action fantasy film directed by Chris Columbus from a screenplay by Craig Titley, based on the 2005 novel The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. The film is the first installment in the Percy Jackson film series. It stars Logan Lerman as Percy Jackson alongside an ensemble cast that includes Brandon T. Jackson, Alexandra Daddario, Sean Bean, Pierce Brosnan, Steve Coogan, Rosario Dawson, Catherine Keener, Kevin McKidd, Joe Pantoliano, and Uma Thurman.

The introduction to the movie series (and book series) gives us the origin of Percy Jackson, a young man with normal adolescent struggles who suddenly finds out he’s the son of Poseidon and the one accused of stealing Zeus’ thunderbolt.
What follows is the meeting of several other demigods – kids from the Half-Blood Training Camp, and their trainers such as Charon, a centaur. And an introduction to some of the gods and figures from Greek Mythology.
I enjoy the idea of it, but again the book is better, and the movie, while enjoyable, misses a lot of the context and details.
My Rating: ★ ★ ★
