Critics Consensus

It's pretty and packed with action; unfortunately, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters is also waterlogged with characters and plots that can't help but feel derivative.

2/5

Scrappy and kind-hearted, with odd flashes of high camp - even if its universe of patchworked Greek mythological elements still makes little sense.

Precious little about this is particularly memorable, but it's the odd touch of local color that makes these routine acts of derring-do a bit easier to bear.

The kids are charmless, the adults bemused.

3/5

A bad adaptation of Riordan's second Percy Jackson book, but a reasonably entertaining film. Lerman feels like he's sleepwalking through the role, though, instead of settling in to make it his own.

1.5/4.0

It seems far too early in Lerman's career for a paycheck film to enter the picture.

2/5

Younger audiences may still find themselves entertained by Sea of Monsters, but by slowing down the pace and having some faith in its actors, it could have been so much more.

The first movie was bad, this is worse. They yet again when completely astray from the books and changed a bunch of stupid stuff that doesn't make sense. There's literally a book so why can't you read it and adapt that! There's no point in changing everything thing wtf

This sequel manages to be even worse. The script is a hodgepodge that destroys the mythology, delivering a rushed, soulless adventure. The visual effects are weak, and the cast seems to have lost its charisma, turning in robotic performances. With silly dialogue and lazy narrative choices, the film definitively buried the franchise in theaters.
