Any good movies in Greek mythology?
I brought my son to see "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" in the theater this weekend and seemed intrigued by the tips (small) of Greek mythology. The film was almost impossible to see for anyone over 10 years, but expected me to find a better example of Greek mythology (Hercules, Poseidon and the rest of the gods) Does anyone know a good movie about the mythology Greek? I'm not looking for a documentary, which is required to maintain the attention span of a child of 11 years. I'm not worried by the notation (R, PG13, NC17, blah, blah, blah) and I do not want Silly cartoons or clay. Thanks! I wanted to add, I'm not religious, I think it's a great story.
If you give discharged with special effects, there is always the initial shock of the Titans.
