Classic Greek Myths

I personally like Perseus and the Gorgon (Medusa) because there is more action, the characters,etc. The reason why I chose more action is because Perseus sets out for adventure as he meets the 3 witches who one of them has one eye, kills the Medusa, meets Atlas,etc. For the first film, it was a somewhat boring although Minotaur part was very interesting. The story was mostly about the main characters son and cousin or nephew (not so sure) and how they both die and how he creates lot's of statues of his son. The second one was more interesting than the first one because Theseus kills the Minotaur and how he doesn't keep his promises. I chose the characters because Medusa looks very scary with those snakes and red eyes. The witches who have only eye looks very similar to the movie "Clash of the Titans".The themes for the three myths are similar because they are both set in Greece. Another common thing that they all have is that they all are in a cave or a dark place.
