Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Plot

At the top of the Empire State Building, Zeus (Sean Bean) tells his brother Poseidon (Kevin McKidd) that his master bolt has been stolen. He blames Poseidon's son for the theft. Despite Poseidon's claims of his son's innocence, Zeus gives him 14 days to return it, lest war break out.

During a field trip to an exhibition of Greek and Roman art, seventeen year old Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman), is lured away from the crowd by a Fury, Mrs. Dodds, disguised as his substitute English teacher, who then attacks him, questioning him about the lightning bolt. The incredulous Percy, who has no knowledge of this, is rescued by his Latin teacher, Mr. Brunner (Pierce Brosnan). After dispatching the Fury, Brunner gives Percy a sword disguised as a pen. On Brunner's instruction, Percy's best friend, Grover Underwood (Brandon T. Jackson), takes Percy to a training camp for demigods, Camp Half-Blood, along with Percy's mother, Sally Jackson (Catherine Keener). Although Percy and Grover, who is revealed to be a satyr, make it to the camp, its defenses prohibit entrance to Sally, who is captured by the Minotaur, and disappears before Percy. Percy engages the Minotaur with the pen, which turns into a sword named Riptide, eventually killing the creature with one of its horns.

In touring Camp Half-Blood, Percy learns that Brunner is the mythological centaur Chiron, and the camp's trainer, and that his (Percy's)father is the god Poseidon. He also meets Luke Castellan (Jake Abel), a son of Hermes, and Annabeth Chase (Alexandra Daddario), a daughter of Athena. While at the camp, Percy learns that water has the power to heal his injuries, and allows him to manifest his magical abilities.

Hades later appears and reveals that Sally Jackson is his prisoner, and proposes she be traded for the master bolt. Chiron instructs Percy not to bargain with the god, but to go to Olympus to convince Zeus of his innocence. Percy sneaks away from the camp to travel to the Underworld, along with Grover and Annabeth, who secure for him from Luke a portable shield, flying shoes and a map to Persephone's (Rosario Dawson) pearls, which allow them to exit the Underworld.

The trio is attacked by Medusa (Uma Thurman), but manage to decapitate her, and take the first pearl from her bracelet. They also take her head, which they later successfully use against a hydra that attacks them during their acquisition of the second pearl from the crown of a giant statue of Athena at the Parthenon replica in Nashville, Tennessee.

They acquire the third and final pearl from a roulette wheel at the Lotus Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, in part with help from Poseidon, who aids them against Lotus Eaters; these had moved from the island where Odysseus had met them to the Lotus Casino in Las Vegas. The map reveals an entrance to the Underworld in Hollywood, beneath the Hollywood Sign. The trio enter the Underworld, where Percy attempts to explain to Hades that he is not the lightning thief. A melee ensues, and although they manage to escape with the rescued Sally, they are forced to leave Grover behind, in Persephone's "care", as they only had three pearls. They are confronted by Luke, who reveals himself to have been the real lightning thief. Expressing his desire for a new generation of rulers to take over Olympus, he explains that he had hoped that the trio would not have escaped the Underworld alive, and after stealing the bolt from Percy, the two engage in battle.

After using his water powers to dispatch Luke, Percy arrives at Olympus, where he presents the retrieved bolt, and reveals the truth about Luke. Percy also requests that Zeus retrieve Grover from the Underworld, which the god agrees to. Poseidon explains to Percy the reason why they could not know each other during Percy's childhood, but expresses his love for his son. Percy returns to Camp Half-Blood, where he resumes his training, ending the film in the midst of a clash with Annabeth.

While the credits were rolling, Sally Jackson leaves Gabe with his stuff in a room. He wanted a beer and found a lock and a note on his refrigerator. Furious, he breaks of the lock only to find Medusa's head. The credits roll on as cracking noises are heard.

---> Hampeh aku tak tau cite ni pasal ape sebenarnya.. tp aku agak obsess pasal Greeks Mythology.. sejarah depa ni menarik. Bila aku dapat tau cite ni sebenarnya adaptasi dari novel... pe lagi.. berjam2 la aku melangguk depan screen mengadap novel Percy Jackson ni dlm bentuk pdf! tak cukup layan kat rumah... aku layan time lunch! hehehehe.. errr.. n time aku sengal kat ofis.. huahuaahuaaa...

Actually novel n movie.. seperti biasa, novel much much mucchhh more better... tp kalau korang tak baca buku.. the movie is good enough!

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Perseus was the son of Zeus, not Poseidon. However, Percy isn't supposed to be the Perseus from original mythology he was given his name in honor of Perseus.

Chiron: Use this to defend yourself. It's a powerful weapon.

Percy Jackson: This is a pen.
Chiron: Only use it in times of severe distress.
Percy Jackson: This is a *pen*.

Percy Jackson: ...and you were a human - goat hybrid... thing
Grover: The politically correct term is satyr.


Grover: [holding up the Medusa head] Guys, I cannot pee with her watching!
[the passing maid sees the head, screams, and runs off]
Annabeth Chase: We better leave before Homeland S ecurity shows up.

Mrs. Dodds: You stole the lightning bolt!
Percy Jackson: I don't know what your talking about!
Mrs. Dodds: Give to me, now, or I will bite your heart out!

Percy Jackson: Oh I wish I could spend all day in the water instead of this place
Grover: Oh like High School without the musical

Medusa: We get so lonely here. That's why I created my statues. They're my only company.
Medusa: [to Annabeth] Daughter of Athena.
Annabeth Chase: How do you know me?
Medusa: You have such a beautiful hair. I used to have like that one before. I was courted, desired by many. But that all changed, because of your mother-who cursed me, who turned me into...[removing her hair cover]
Annabeth Chase: Don't look!
Medusa: This.
[snakes hissing]
Medusa: They say the eyes are windows to the soul. I hope you find my eyes...
[removing her glasses]
Medusa: Attractive... So rude not looking people in the eyes. Come on, sneak a peak.
