I was very surprised to see actual nudity in such an old, classic movie. But the movie itself was fine. The storyline about Perseus is mixed up somewhat (for example; Pegasus is created from the blood of Medusa, in the movie Perseus finds Pegasus to help him find Medusa).

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about when the gods intervene in the lives of the humans in this story? How much power do they have? How can you tell? Why must Perseus lose each of his divine gifts? What does Ammon mean when he asks, "When will they ever learn?" Why was Thetis angry when Casseopeia said her daughter was more beautiful? Does that remind you of any other stories? What does it mean when Perseus says "I have found my destiny"? What do you think destiny means? How will you know your own destiny? To what extent to we make our own destiny?

This is a pre-PG13 PG-movie
While this wasn't a great movie, it still is worth watching as a version of the "Perseus" myth, albeit heavily altered. I saw this for the first time probably when I was 12 or so, and found it disturbing and shocking. There is a fair bit of bloody violence, and the scene with Medusa is extremely intense. Also, those who are used to the MPAA's current standards may be shocked by the three short (but not entirely necessary) scenes of nudity.
