Synopsis

In Ancient Greece 1200 B.C., a queen succumbs to the lust of Zeus to bear a son promised to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the king and restore peace to a land in hardship. But this prince, Hercules, knows nothing of his real identity or his destiny. He desires only one thing: the love of Hebe, Princess of Crete, who has been promised to his own brother. When Hercules learns of his greater purpose, he must choose: to flee with his true love or to fulfill his destiny and become the true hero of his time. The story behind one of the greatest myths is revealed in this action-packed epic - a tale of love, sacrifice and the strength of the human spirit.

Terry Williams This heroic tale was done quite well on all levels, top notch director Renny Harlin made sure of it. Kellen Lutz and Scott Adkins both had the physical presence needed for their roles as did all the guys who were in fight scenes. Having said that, the film had some brutal battles. It also contained a romantic storyline, sibling rivalry, jealousy, and so on...plenty here to sustain interests.The legend of Hercules is a well made Greek mythology flick if I must say so myself. It is always unfortunate when great films such as this get underestimated. I never listen to negative reviews. I don't know about you but I'd rather see something for myself rather than listen to people who are cynical about everything.
Marcus Cyron (MarcusCyron) Pick up a few names of ancient myths, add up a few antique locations, erase everything that made up the whole thing, gave it soul and kept the stories lasting for millennia. Dismember various things, rob the characters of their backgrounds. Then add something completely foreign, as long as it looks antique. 1200 BC or 200 AD - obviously does not matter. Sp the year 2000 is the same as the year 600? Then let the figures of antiquity act like people living today. And finally you have this cinematic crime.
sergelamarche Effects not perfect but still a lot of effort was put into the film. I don't want to bash the little guys. This was somewhat watchable and some of the action was impressive gymnastically. Looks like a kid film or cable TV film for educating us. In any case the half-god Hercules is not your sissy half-god Jesus. Jesus made god more sissy and less killy I suppose, but now man does more killing than Him. Fun to watch with low expectations.
Eddie Cantillo The Legend of Hercules(2014) Starring: Kellan Lutz ,Gaia Weiss ,Scott Adkins, Roxanne McKee, Liam Garrigan ,Liam McIntyre,Rade Serbedzija ,Jonathon Schaech,Luke Newberry , and Kenneth Cranham . Directed By: Renny Harlin Review Every man has a destiny, and every Hercules fan will hate whatever the heck this was suppose to be. You will not believe how stupid this all looks, it will blow your mind. The movie has no plot what so ever but it kind of feels like this we see Hercules with another name which you won't remember or care for, his brother takes credit for killing the lion that Hercules kills is going to marry the princess but she doesn't want to marry him cause she loves Hercules, Hercules is presumed dead. But he does a gladiator type thing gets kidnapped and bands an army who will fight beside him to stop the king and his brother. There was another Hercules movie that came out after this one and while I don't like it and consider it to be kind of bad, I honestly think that was a better adaption of the legend of Hercules then this. All this film seems to be is some sort of Greek film with a famous character with one poor action scene after another that consist of slow mo when you know for a fact it isn't needed. Along with all the other horrendous movies that have come out this year it like the actors are sleep walking or are a loaf of bread. When I think of a movie that says the legend of(insert famous character) I'm always hoping it will be awesome but it never is. Don't waste your time with this I give The Legend of Hercules a 0.5 out of 5.
