Fallen Demigod



The resoundingly insipid The Legend of Hercules takes the eponymous character and makes a totally blotched job on possibly all conceivable fronts. Poor cinematography, a total absence of character build-up, near-invisible visuals, a musical score that was turn-on turn-off and incongruous with the story in the background, the inexplicable hurried execution that makes the movie look more like a collection of trailers – where does one even start? The only saving grace is that with a few minor exceptions, each of the actors looked their part. If you are generally a period movie buff, I suppose this is a must-watch, simply because there is so little of the stuff going around. For anyone else, this is an unequivocal miss


9.5/20
