The second Percy Jackson movie, based on Rick Riordan's urban fantasy teen novels. Son of Greek god Poseidon, Percy (Logan Lerman) ventures to the Sea of Monsters to find the mythical Golden Fleece.
Percy has had an unnervingly quiet school year. But then he discovers that the magical borders protecting Half Blood Hill are failing. Unless something is done, the camp will be attacked by demons and monsters. The only way to restore power to the camp's borders is to find the Golden Fleece.
From the director of Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters continues a tradition of adequacy that could be described as “epic-ish” or “majestic-esque.”

Buoyant effects help keep this sequel from being a noisily hit and myth proposition.

The CG does its part of the bargain, but even more than the brighter, breezier original this is a pale imitation of Potter.
