I have a strong belief that Percey Jackson from the movie is a better and more relatable Perseus. An interesting fact, Percy Jackson is a little more selfless. Which a hero has a right to be. Also, due to the settings being in modern times it helps making him more relatable. It also makes it feel like he has more of a social life. In Perseus the text never states that he hangs out with his friends which leads to my assumption that he just hangs out with his mom a.k.a. a mama's boy.

First of all, Percy he is only out to save his mom; in return for his friends helping him he is going to meet the gods to tell them that he didn’t steal the Lightning bolt (Columbus Percy Jackson). Being a little more selfless helps him transform Perseus because a hero deserves to be selfless…
