I agree this film had impressive production values. Stop motion effects by Ray Harryhausen were impressive.However, uninspired acting and problems with pacing limit my rating to only B+. The scenes of the gods and goddesses on Mount Olympus were also distracting.
Yes, nowadays the Hollywood people have the notion that, whatever the historical documents say, we know better; we know what looks cool!
