God Of War: Sons Of Sparta Review - The Mildly Amusing Adventures Of Teen Kratos

God Of War: Sons Of Sparta Review - The Mildly Amusing Adventures Of Teen Kratos https://ift.tt/vxab7U6 God of War: Sons of Sparta is a reasonably decent but not particularly great metroidvania spin-off that suffers from an identity crisis. A prequel set when franchise protagonist Kratos and his brother Deimos were coming of age in the Spartan army, Sons of Sparta lacks the over-the-top action spectacle of the other games in the God of War franchise. As a metroidvania it is middling and at times simply awkward, with a dearth of its own original ideas or excellent execution to liven up the genre.

One scene in the movie has Fraser's titular character rescuing someone whose parachute became tangled in a bridge on the way down. Brendan said it took place at the Golden Gate Bridge, but SFGate noted that it was actually the Bay Bridge.

"I have, almost, an apology to make. When we were doing George of the Jungle, George goes to rescue a parachutist tangled in the Golden Gate Bridge. That means Disney put a mannequin hanging by a parachute from the uprights," Fraser explained. "It brought traffic to a standstill on either side of the bridge. My trailer was on the other side in a parking lot. I just remember watching the [Bridge]. There's this dummy parachutist hanging from it."
