Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Percy Jackson and the Olympians - The movie was a lot better than I thought it would be.  At the beginning of the movie, I didn't understand why Percy's mom was with such an idiot - you'll find out why.  Later on he discovers he's is part Greek god and sets out on a battle to get back something he is accused of taking.  At the same time his mother has been, taken and it fuels the fire.  There were clever twists and turns.  I was interested the entire time.  My kids enjoyed it as well.
