Georgan G The movie was silly but I recommend u do NOT watch as cruelty to horses goes on & on. They trip the horses, and some will not survive. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/24 Full Review Audience Member A silly little film starring body builder Steve Reeves in the Hercules Franchise, it was so bad that I actually laughed a few times. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member quite a stretch, not much in the story. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member 69% "I don't care if he's Pluto, I'm going to knock that silly grin off his face."-Hercules (Steve Reeves) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Married to Sylva but bewitched by Sylvia--Steve Reeves Unleashed!! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Epic, but dated, Franch-Italian production sees Hercules returning to see his home city on the verge of war as two brothers feud over it's control. Hercules is prevented from helping much as he spends a portion of this film with amnesia yet his battle with Anteo the Giant will be remembered for ages.
