Highly Overrated But Still Good

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The strange aspect is to not can criticize it. it is a MTV film, with a precise target, without high ambitions and proposing a more than easy story. the only virtue is Ian Bohen, as a good looking Hercules but far to be credible for the viewer who knows some Greek mythology. the film is almost an improvisation. or a mixture of characters, adventures, good intentions and fight scenes. nothing coherent, nothing credible. but right choice for a generation who, after 20 years, is , at first sigh, more preocupated by technology and video games, for who the easy stories - this more than the series - are good entertainment. after Xen and Hercules series, this film is not surprising or error. it represents only the use of succes in most simple way. nothing wrong. if you loos for real easy films.

I made the error of buying the DVD of this, so I thought I would write a warning to others to beware. I found modest acting, dialog written in teenage mall slang, lots of tilting and panning camera moves meant to enhance the illusion of excitement, and painfully fractured Greek mythology (since when was the Greek god of war meant to be a scheming villain?). My roommate, his girlfriend and I watched it in a sort of amazed stupor. Ian Bohen is cute, that's about all I can say in its favor.

Ian Bohen is so much better than that annoying blond kid who played Young Herc on the tv show. I would have hated the movie if blondie was in it. The story was pretty good too. The thing I liked the most was that Ares wasn't a wimpy, irritating characther like he is on Hercules and Xena: he's more evil and that's the way I like him. There's also a great fight scene at the end.

The director has created a clan of caricatures who only fleetingly rise to the level of characters. The visual effects are primarily swirling montages and the music track overpowers many scenes. Inclusion of some episodes from the mythological story of Jason and the Golden Fleece leaves this plot merely episodic and confused. It's barely a nice try.
