Clash of the Titans is a remake of the successful movie of the same name. But, for all its updated special effects and an impressive cast, including Sam Worthington (Avatar), Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes, it didn’t live up to expectations. It made plenty of money domestically, however, $163 million and even more domestically, $328.4 million for a combined total of $491.6 mil. We still love the original starring Harry Hamlin more.
Special Features: Additional scenes.
Repo Men didn’t really get much attention as expected in theaters, but perhaps a go in home entertainment will help.
