Sinopsis(1)
Hombre y leyenda. Hércules (Dwayne Johnson) lidera un grupo de mercenarios que ayudan a terminar con una sangrienta guerra civil en las tierras de Tracia para restaurar en el trono a su auténtico rey. Atormentado desde su nacimiento, Hércules tiene la fuerza de un dios, pero siente y sufre como un humano. Inimaginables enemigos pondrán a prueba el mítico poder de Hércules en una película dirigida por Brett Ratner. Una cruda visión de uno de los héroes de acción más épicos de todos los tiempos.

Otra estupidez estadounidense más que saquea/daña la historia europea. Pero a mí esta estupidez me entretuvo enormemente y me desahogué con ella. Cerré los ojos ante los clichés estadounidenses y disfruté de medio dios "The Rock" segando a cientos de enemigos con su simpático equipo. Brett Ratner sabe cómo hacer una película emocionante de acción.

Watch the extended and unrated cut, otherwise it won’t make any sense. Because the only thing tha does are the several very well-executed action and battle sequences that often captivate with their straightforwardness and relatively solid dose of heaven-piercing force. The rest is just a more or less effective mess of clichés. Rather than being a pompous ancient legend, it's closer to a dirty and gloomy Conan the Barbarian, and even the main hero himself is stylized as such. It's trash, but the protagonists are and surprisingly the wisecracks work quite well and solidly lighten up the unoriginal script.

I like the idea of removing the myth from Hercules, the story based on the comic book is fine. Predictable and simple, but fine. The tempo is just right (slowing only after the introductory action sequence), decent effects and Dwayne is trying hard. Liberal usage of snappy lines (soothsayer Ian McShane dominates in this) and everything’s simply ok. Unfortunately “ok" is the problem. Ratner isn’t able to come up with anything interesting or original. The story fizzles out and ends in flames and in Scorpion King style. Hasn’t the Rock learned anything over the years?

If Hercules had focused on completing the 12 tasks I think the film would have gone into the red as well, but I'm still very pleasantly surprised at how entertaining it is. I'm definitely impressed by the awesome Dwayne Johnson, the very attractive visuals and CGI, I haven't seen such top notch effects in a long time. I was also surprised by the great and creative action, it is long, imaginative, excellently shot and at times decently brutal, so fans will definitely get a kick out of this one. And I was especially pleased that the film pokes fun at legends and superstitions and that there's always a realistic explanation. Perfect entertainment!
