I've been driving Tara crazy (lately) by randomly shouting "release the Kraken!" as I roam the house the last few weeks. I've been anxiously awaiting the release of a cheesy, 3-D remake of the classic, cheesy "Clash Of The Titans."I can only hope that watching the film is as much fun as reading Roger Ebert's (three-star) review:
I was prepared to take notes during "Clash of the Titans" but only wrote down a single one: "Release the Kraken!" — Conan O'Brien. I know I was intended to be terrified by the release of the Kraken, but all I could think of was O'Brien shouting "Release the bear!" and then some guy in a bear suit runs out and sits on the lap of a guest.
...I like this kind of stuff. I don't say it's good cinema, although I recognize the craftsmanship that went into it. I don't say it's good acting, when the men have so much facial hair they all look like Liam Neeson. I like the energy, the imagination, the silliness. I even like the one guy who doesn't have a beard.
