Sinopsis(1)
Hércules, un chico aparentemente corriente, es mucho más que un simple hombre, incluso por muchos llega a ser considerado un Dios. Se trata del hijo de Zeus, y ambos cuentan con un poder sobrehumano que les hace poseer una fuerza casi infinita, motivo por el cual tienen una serie de enemigos que planean arrebatarles este don y evitar así que reinen el planeta. Por ello, nada más llegar al mundo, Hércules fue despojado de su derecho divino de nacimiento. Todo sucedió cuando fue robado de su cuna por Hades, el Dios del mal y el inframundo, quien malévolamente le hizo beber una poción mágica que lo transformó en mortal. Ahora, armado sólo con su fuerza natural y su caballo volador Pegaso, Hércules debe recuperar su legítimo lugar en el Monte Olimpo. (Disney España)

The 35th Disney Feature Film This Hercules is something that just had to happen. Hercules and Sorbo and Xena with Lucy Lawless were ruling the airwaves, and they also had cartoon versions. But Disney figured out how to differentiate their story about the most famous demigod - they simply sprinkled gospel into the coming-of-age story from zero to hero... and it worked. :)

A very fast-paced Disney movie that falls into the group of ones you can watch anytime and always enjoy. Unfortunately, it has one flaw – the muses. For someone who usually listens to singing in Walt's fairy tales with joy and who loves Alan Menken beyond the grave, for me this group of "commentators" spoiled an otherwise flawless adventure. On the other hand, the main song "Go the Distance" is one of the best Disney songs I have ever heard. And the rest is great too – Hades, his servants, Olympus, and the double finale.

A better than good animated feature that really paces from start to finish, but at the same time doesn't drag the viewer down. The title character is likable, but the real fun is provided by the Danny DeVito-voiced satyr, James Woods as Hades, and Susan Egan as Meg(ara) – cartoonish but 200 percent sexy. Last but not least, Alan Menken has taken a gospel leaning this time and the songs of the muses that tell the whole story are a particular treat for the ear.

There are countless films about Hercules and the Disney version of this famous story about the invincible strongman is undoubtedly one of the funniest. In terms of animation, it is a smart piece with many nice ideas and allusions to contemporary culture. Besides the action-fantasy scenes, Hercules is brimming with many funny moments, mainly provided by the incompetent sidekicks Hades, Pegasus and the satyr Phil. Hercules himself isn't all that remarkable, but it was funny to watch him brimming with enormous strength, but also shyness and trepidation when the murderously seductive Meg came along.
