Sam F Being years after the release of this movie and hating it then, I take my Sunday evening with a delicious meal and come across this movie while scrolling through Amazon Prime. I think, "What the hell, let's give it another go"! Oh how I was so, so wrong. The acting is absolutely atrocious! The script, is an absolute joke! Why is everyone yelling and talking with this chest voice, which makes the acting that much worse. All you had to do, is take the Disney cartoon movie, and copy it! Greek mythology about the half blood god Hercules, the son of Zeus! Instead you have ridiculous slow motion nonstop throughout the movie, like come on!!! Spoiler Alert!!! One scene where Hercules love runs to the water to see that her one true love is not dead and Everytime it cuts to Hercules in the water it's slow motion, than it cuts back to girl and she is in real time and than back to Hercules and he is in slow motion!!! This goes on for 2 minutes!!! This should never have been released and should have been destroyed on an island where they test nuclear weapons. And then every human being that was in the film should have signed NDA's to never speak of their involvement of said film. The director, sent back to directing mono toned teenages on YouTube. Horrible movie, and thank God for being able to multitask where I could be doing other things at the same time of the movie running because, sadly if I start a movie, I have to let it play through out of respect for someone in the movie I at least liked a little.

The script sounds like it was written by an angsty 14 year old trying to sound grown up. The CGI is clunky. It's just awful. Don't waste your time. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/22/24 Full Review Tanaputz J I figured it couldn't be any worse than the Gladiator movies of the 1960's. I was wrong. So very wrong. As cheesy as the movies from the 60's were, I actually think they were better... Judge for yourself...but remember...I told you so. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review bill k this was not the legend of Hercules we know there is barely any resemblence to the characters arc and the plot is to cliched to be original and the actor kellan lutz is just sleepwalking in the role much of the time and he is basically acting almost nothing like the greek god and rather a poor mans Thor style knock off heck even his brother iphicles is portrayed as a knock of off his stepbrother Loki from the marvel series. meanwhile Scott Adkins as the evil king comes off as a poor mans version of Leonidas and especially an evil version of him and it all falls flat across the board what's even worse is how its shot and filmed the effects look so cheap and artificial there is a scene where he and his brother encounter a lion which look stupid the CGI lion was awful and stupid looking and almost didn't even act like the fearless and unafraid big cat we know of in real life he is instead portrayed as a scaredy cat how laughable its that can you imagine. there is also that scene when not Hercules uses a lightning whip that equally looks as stupid how would it even look like if there was such a thing or if there was such a thing of lighting striking a sword and giving it lightning power when raised in the air during a thunderstorm, it was so stupid I literally burst out In laughter seriously him using a lighting whip to whipe out his enemies he is Thor in Hercules clothing you hear that everyone Thor is disguised as Hercules and even his family or shall I say non family is a poorly done version of the family relationship of Thor, Loki and odin if he was evil its that noticable. there is also an unintentionally hilarious moment when the evil king catches the queen with zeus and when he opens the curtain he doesn't seem him and goes nuts and in an incomprehensible and growly tone he asks who is this man . yeah. then yells at the rainy sky how hilarious right. In just about every fight scene they use too much excessive slow motion and a fight scene can't be exiting when there is too much disruptive slow motion how they managed to screw it all up is beyond me this was a bewildering experience to watch and i highly recommend everyone to stay away from this atrociously schlocky mess don't bother with it its a skip. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/26/24 Full Review Danny R Just watched this film with zero expectations or previous opinions from others, few cans of Stella and a cheeky bag and it’s viewers delight, no unnecessary prolonged scenes that cloud the rather clear purpose of this film which is to be admired quite frankly, if I were a Roman emperor and this film were the gladiators fighting to the death, my thumb would most certainly be raised Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/08/24 Full Review Read all reviews
