Hercules


Everyone knows the legend of Hercules and his twelve labors. Our story begins after the labors, and after the legend…  Haunted by a sin from his past, Hercules has become a mercenary. Along with five faithful companions, he travels ancient Greece selling his services for gold and using his legendary reputation to intimidate enemies. But when the benevolent ruler of Thrace and his daughter seek Hercules' help to defeat a savage and terrifying warlord, Hercules finds that in order for good to triumph and justice to prevail... he must again become the hero he once was... he must embrace his own myth... he must be Hercules. 


This movie was much better than I thought it would be.  I knew that I would like it regardless because The Rock is in it.  This guy just makes everything better.  Even with that being said, I still expected this to be the same run of the mill Conan/Hercules type of movie with overdone special effects and what not.  The fact that the movie pretty much made fun of the whole Hercules myth made it so much more entertaining.  And the posse he had with him instead of him taking on the world by himself also made the movie better.  

I would definitely recommend people checking this movie out.  It was very entertaining and a very pleasant surprise since I just expected to watch The Rock in a piece of crap.
