New Teen Movie Includes 'Zinger' That Obama 'Might Be a Demigod'

On Friday, Washington Post film critic Michael O'Sullivan reviewed the new movie for teens and tweens, Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief. This line tended to stand out.

A couple of characters get off some real zingers here. Grover actually suggests, at one point, that President Obama might be a demigod.

O'Sullivan is not a fan of the acting: "Together, she and her co-star make Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens look like Tracy and Hepburn. Only Brandon T. Jackson manages to make much of an impression as Grover, the goofy, jive-talking satyr who is Percy's best friend."
