Alex Beecher ENG 215 5/31/12 Film Review Perseus Abound For this film review‚ I watched the film Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. It tells the story of Percy‚ son of Poseidon‚ and his quest to discover both who he is and who stole the mighty lightning bolt of Zeus. The film is aimed at families‚ and generally shows an accurate representation of the Greek myths.
