7. Clash of the Titans – Perseus against the gods

The Clash of the Titans remake in 2010 is an exciting ride when Perseus battles the likes of Medusa and the Kraken. Challenged with saving mankind, he fights his way through divine wrath and ancient prophecies. The film underlines how fragile humans are who oppose the will of gods, whereas Perseus's tenacity speaks to the human spirit. Action sequences and modern visual effects make the myth accessible to contemporary audiences. The movie's investigation of free will vs. fate confirms it as a classic case of the man versus myth trope.
