The Legend of Hercules Hollywood Movie Review and Ratings (6/10)

Plot : In this epic origin story, the mythical Greek hero Hercules - the son of Zeus, a half-god, half-man blessed with extraordinary strength. Betrayed by his stepfather, the King, and exiled and sold into slavery because of a forbidden love, Hercules must use his formidable powers to fight his way back to his rightful kingdom. Through harrowing battles and gladiator-arena death matches, Hercules embarks on a legendary odyssey to overthrow the King and restore peace to the land.

 
Review :
 Watched The Legend of Hercules last night and overall in my opinion, a satisfying movie. The story was plain straight simple and the art design of the film was good. The 1 and maybe only complain I had with the film would have to be Hercules himself. Cullen Lutz portrays him well but he didn't really look like Hercules to me since he was not buff enough and too pretty boy looked for the character. Hercules in my opinion should have a bit of this brute looks within him. I think a man of lets say Brock Lesnar's size would have made a better Hercules. Another thing is that Hercules has the strength of the gods which makes him superhuman but in this film, I felt like I was watching Perseus more than Hercules since he didn't portray his godly strength up until the last minute and that was only of a minute of two. It would have been better if they showed him lifting up a pillar or throwing a huge rock at his enemies. Overall however apart from Hercule's character personality, everything else in the movie was OK for me.

Ratings :
I'd give it a 6 out of 10
