Percy Jackson the Sea of Monsters was generally a better movie than the Lightning Thief. However, it still did not reach my level of satisfaction. I'll give them props that they put Clarisse La Rue, didn't disappoint with Tyson in and actually died Annabeth's hair blond, but there was one thing that really ticked me off: the fight with Kronos. This fight wasn't supposed to happen until the 5th book and it doesn't take 5 minutes to kill him. Tyson's appearance wasn't a disappointment but his personality didn't reflect the book version of him. In the book he is "a big baby" as Percy put it, not a normal personality for his age. And if they didn't mess up the first movie, Percy would've been 14-15 in the Sea of Monsters which would hold the prophecy at 16 not 20. I honestly believe I could be a better director towards these Percy Jackson movies then the previous 2. In other words, the director was better than the first, but he was still not good enough.
