Review by shenamere

Percy Jackson and the Olympians

6/10

Pre-teen Imagination

The recipe is pretty simple. Gather a group of cute teens and pre-teens. Give them characters that are like those of a fairy tale, but make everything sound very serious. Use lots of moody, mysterious music during wide-eyed face close-ups. There has to be a death of a loved one to get an emotional foundation. Then add a bit of wizardry and newly discovered powers. Finally, a dash of hope and mystery to stir the plot into a trajectory of wondering discovery. Nothing is as it seems, trust those you can trust and true virtues always win the day. It's classic Dizzy and hints at some potential appeal for grown-ups, but ultimately fails to satisfy. The episodes wander like a board game or a video game. Just remember, nothing is as it seems because there really isn't anything to begin with!
