* BrokenAesop: Same as the first movie, it makes a point of "humanity doesn't need gods". The operative issue here is that gods and demigods are, literally speaking, sacrificing themselves in droves to protect mankind and the only thing standing between mankind and utter annihilation.

** Sam Worthington was allowed to show his [[http://www.mtv.com/news/1681917/sam-worthington-wrath-of-the-titans-hair/ naturally curly hair]], which looks more appropriate (as hair served to help pad helmets) than his previous buzzcut.
** The sequel finally pairs Perseus and Andromeda.
** To make up for the first film's NonindicativeName (there were no Titans to be seen), ''Wrath'' has a story revolving around the resurrection of the Titan Kronos.

** Perseus taking down the Chimera.
*** OffscreenMomentOfAwesome but the [[BadassNormal Greek]] [[BadassCrew army]] with heavy causalities ''took down three''!
** Agenor's IAmNotLeftHanded moment. When we first see him he is chained, hands and legs cuffed, and is getting manhandled by a guard, and looks like a bum and a loon. When Perseus's words stir up his daddy issue? He just [[SuperStrength shrugs his shoulder]] and the soldier gets PunchedAcrossTheRoom. CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass indeed.
** The fight against the Cyclopses.
** Ares DynamicEntry as listed in the main page, followed by him utterly curbstomping everyone present, with them escaping with their lives only due to Hephaestus's HeroicSacrifice was definitely a villainous moment of awesome.
*** The aforementioned sacrifice.
** The Labyrinth itself.
** The battle between Perseus and Ares.
** Hades performing a HeelFaceTurn was one of the most honorable deeds in the entire film.
** Zeus and Hades against the LegionsOfHell at full power.
--->'''Hades:''' We have no weapons.
--->'''Zeus:''' [[BadassBoast We had power before we had weapons.]]
--->'''Hades:''' When we were young gods.
--->'''Zeus:''' Yes... Let's have some fun.
** The fight against [[EldritchAbomination Cronos]] by Perseus.
** They might be twisted, BodyHorror bad guys, but watching the Makhai run and spin and cut and wound and carve and cleave their way through soldiers as if it were no thing is rather awesome.
*** Andromeda and her soldiers teaming up and taking down one. Not so PunyHumans anymore huh?
*** Few more die to a catapult, and when one shruggs of a spike through its chest, Agenor finishes him off.
*** Blink and miss, but Andromeda actually stops a sword swing from one of the superstrong Makhai.
** Perseus taking down the Chimera.

* CriticalResearchFailure: The Chimera has wings, which would have been cool but misses out one ''important'' bit of the myth: the reason Bellerophon had to go through all the trouble of capturing Pegasus so he can ''fly above'' the monster, safe from its flames and fangs. ''This would, quite logically, not work if the Chimera could fly.'' The filmmakers clearly went for RuleOfCool.
Deleted line(s) 14 (click to see context) :
* IdiotPlot: If Perseus had just gone with Zeus when he asked him to, he probably could have stopped Ares and Hades from imprisoning Zeus in the first place. What's worse is that he makes a big deal out of not leaving his son's side... and then five minutes later, leaves his son's side and a Chimera attacks his village, nearly killing the both of them.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: In the sequel there are a couple of times in the Labyrinth where Andromeda thinks she sees Korrina walking around and Perseus sees Helius. There is a line from Hephaestus referencing possible hallucinations -- but it's not drawn attention to that much. Also when Perseus is separated from the others, he's attacked by a minotaur. After he kills it, it's not mentioned again and there are no other monsters put as obstacles in the Labyrinth.
* CompleteMonster: [[TheHeavy Ares]], the [[WarGod god of war]], is the [[AntagonisticOffspring disloyal son of Zeus]], who sides with Hades as the Titans awaken. While Hades is motivated by his fear of death and ultimately redeems himself, Ares is completely unrepentant and is DrivenByEnvy of Zeus showing favor to his demigod son Perseus. Ares and Hades sell out Zeus and the other gods to die to awaken Kronos in exchange for being spared, during which Ares needlessly beats and tortures Zeus in captivity. Ares later kills some of his mortal followers, impaling and tossing aside a devout worshiper who prayed to him for salvation and tried to appeal to him. When Zeus manages to reach out to Hades, Ares immediately tries to kill Hades and proceeds with awakening Kronos to wipe out the world, [[spoiler:mortally wounding Zeus]] in the process. During the final battle, Ares takes Perseus's young son Helius captive intending [[ForcedToWatch to force him to watch as he kills his father]].

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Hephaestus, thanks to being a hilarious LargeHam played by Creator/BillNighy.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** Creator/LiamNeeson [[{{Film/Taken}} is the one in danger.]]
** Creator/RosamundPike and Creator/LilyJames star as friends. Pike had already played Jane Bennett in ''Film/PrideAndPrejudice2005''. James would eventually play Jane's younger sister Lizzie...in ''Literature/PrideAndPrejudiceAndZombies''.
** Heck, even the fights against the Titans might get interesting when you find out about ''Manga/AttackOnTitan''. It even has an arc of the same name.

* RetroactiveRecognition: John Bell, who would go on to join Luke Evans in ''Film/TheHobbit''. It also has Lily James as Korrina.
* StrangledByTheRedString: Perseus and Andromeda kiss at the end. They hadn't really had much in the way of romantic development, aside from clear tension when they first meet again. In the movie's defence it's entirely a MaybeEverAfter situation. Likewise a third film was planned, but eventually dropped, so presumably the romance would have been developed a lot more in that.
* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: A few audience members were more acceptive than the predecessor, with a few highlights being a whole new story and actually putting effort into the 3D effects.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: [[spoiler:Poseidon]], who dies fairly early.
* TooCoolToLive: [[spoiler:Hephaestus.]]
* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The film's special effects are spectacular, most notably Kronos, who's essentially a walking volcano of death and destruction. He's truly a sight to behold.
