Clash of the Titans is somewhat violent, but not in a particularly gory or gratuitous way. My 7 year old son LOVED this (he gives it 5 stars). The special effects are dated, but engaging, and the pace holds your interest. A cut above most "B" movies, but definitely evokes the over-acting and basic dialog of those kinds of films.

This movie came out in 1981, when I was 9 yrs old. At that time I had NEVER seen anything like it. I can't count the number of times I dragged my parents to the theater to see this little gem. Seeing it again on DVD was an incredible sense of nostalgia. It was almost like I was 9 yrs old again, and I'm in my early 30's. A few of the reviews say that the special effects don't hold up to todays standards. In 1981, that wasn't stop-motion-animation I was seeing on the screen, it was flying horses, and gorgons, and 3-headed dogs and mythical creatures beyond my wildest imagination. This movie is pure magic, and is sure to win the approval of the young and old alike, even if mythology isn't your thing, give this movie a shot. It will not disappoint you.

As a teacher, this movie is the most faithful I have found regarding the Perseus myth. It also remains one of the most interesting. Regarding the rating, this movie was made in a time when there was no pg-13 rating, thus the 7 seconds of nudity and cartoonish violence. I don't personally think the nudity is that big of a deal as it wasn't sexual in nature. A mother breast-feeding and a woman stepping out of a bath are not any sort of pornography.

This is one of my all time favorite classics. Based on Greek Mythology and legendary heroes, this is great movie for the entire family.

This movie shows Ray Harryhausen at the height of his powers. His creations out-act Harry Hamlin, however.

I guess I didn't see that next to the PG rating. I wasn't really prepared for it when watching this with my 6 and 8 year old. That definitely isn't PG and wasn't brief. That rating needs to be changed to at least pg-13.
