Just delete the required names as you go along, depending on which film you want to know about…

Here goes…

Director Chris Columbus knows how to set himself a challenge.

And what a bewildering one it is.

Hermione/Annabeth is both clever and feisty, and theres an underdeveloped undercurrent of attraction between them.

Hes also served by some genuinely excellent production design, and scenes that positively swim with extras.

Whatever you think ofHarry Potter/Percy Jackson, its often brilliant to look at.

Columbus wisest move is to fill his film with some strong supporting actors.

Their roles are too brief, but their presence on screen always welcome.

Its just theres potential for it to be a bit more than that…

PS.
