Title : Percy Jackson & The Lightning Thief

Runtime : 118'
Release Date : February, 10th 2010
Format : General, 3D
As you know, that 'fantasy' is valuable thing that we can found in teen movie, as Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. Well, Harry Potter has near the climax and we should fill the emptiness with another 'fantasy-adventurous boy'. Well, I haven't felt the 3D yet, but I think the general is enough.
Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief overall brought you into adventure of teenager-boy named Percy Jackson who is the son of Poseidon (God of Sea) that had to find Zeus' Lightning while Percy is suspected to be the thief.
Scenes : 8.7
Cool places that they did with God and Goddess castle, half-blood camp, and background scenes. I give applause for the effects though still much lacks *especially with Percy's flying scene* I hope if they make the sequel, they won't disappoint me with worse background. They need more background aura to make me satisfied with this movie series =3
Music : 8.6
LADY GAGA FTW! *slapped
I don't care too much with the songs or music background. But, if I said I don't care, that means they made the music fit with every scenes of the movie. Simply, good job~
Story : 8.9
Well, it's obvious. They keep the rule of "The Original is Better Than The Adaptation", and I admit this. But, they had done so far with the plot and I appreciate it. Though, there's still much lacks and plot-hole such as conclusion of her mom's living place, how Percy had been out from his school and began his living in half-blood camp without being known by others. maybe that's me who needs too much detailing lol
Character Development : 8.8
Percy, Grover, and Annabeth were characters that had their development mostly on this movie while Percy is the most. Well, if they really want to do the sequel, I'll be waiting to see the development of character development's score on my next journal about its sequel ;)
Overall : 87.5 ( B+ )
Conclusion : Nice for the beginning~ Wait for the next =3
Recommended for : Fantasy lover especially another Harry-Potter addicted
No for : you who hate harem-hit-cute boy :3;;
