Other tiles will turn red, which are areas where lightning will strike at the end of each round. Some tiles have hex modifiers- moving to one of those will trigger some effects. 2.The battle style of Disciples: Liberation is turn-based, with hexagonal grids and obstacles to make things more challenging. Or, even better, just wait to rent it on Blu-Ray. If you must see this on the big screen then do yourself a favour and see it in normal 2D.
Standing out – which isn't overly hard to be honest – is Arterton and Mikkelsen, they give decent performances as the heavenly Io and the disgruntled Draco. Neeson and Fiennes come across as cheesy in their roles of Zeus and Hades respectively, their experienced acting chops can't save them from atrocious wigs and laughable costumes. It doesn't help that Perseus is a massively underwritten role and only requires Worthington to look good and occasionally mutter something heroic. New Aussie on the block, Worthington, takes a misstep in his recently flourishing career his acting is wooden and unconvincing. Take that away and you might actually be able to enjoy the CGI and the ridiculously big set-pieces with the picture clarity they deserve. However seeing as this blockbuster lives and dies by its amped up, large-scaled sequences – the screenplay is utter tripe and doesn't even bother to try to make the links between the action interesting or reasonable – it regrettably falls on its own sword, thanks once again to the indolent 3D. The various creatures we encounter aren't quite always photo-real, although the sheer size of them – especially the tentacular Kraken – are impressive enough to wash away any glaring flaws. It's a shame really as some of the action scenes are quite impressive and boast fairly decent special effects.
The desert-brown palate is dimmed even more by the glasses – something the aforementioned movies could cope with due to their vibrant colours – and all of the wide shots are blotchy at best. The objects in the foreground don't seamlessly meld with those in the background and a lot of the action is blurry and unfocused. The last-minute decision by the filmmakers to add the extra dimension feels tacky and lazy. Avatar may have shown its full potential whilst Alice in Wonderland and How to Train Your Dragon have continued to prove it can be utilised successful, but if not given the time and effort it requires, the third dimension on screen can actually detract from the movie.
