Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

meghnasri-97601 Hercules is 1997 animated feature film. James wood is a fine actor but this one of his childish movies. The movie has some great animation, the songs are quite good and story is ok. But the problem is that the movie is for what kinds like but some people will like it too including the critics. The only memorable character is Hades who portrays a villain in the movie. Hercules is good but not as good as earlier films such as the lion king and not a great one. I saw another movie the other day which was Face/off and guess what. It was more great than this. At least this movie is not bad

Stephen Bird Part of my later childhood and I'll never forget Disney's Hercules, I also liked the video game of Hercules, used to play it on the original PlayStation.Disney took a well known Ancient Greek tale and made it their own, Hercules never looked better than he does here in animation; the colour of the whole film is vibrant, striking and oh so pleasing..., perfect for kids and probably a secret pleasure for some adults too hehe! Tate Donovan isn't exactly the most well-known film star out there, but he does a marvellous job of voicing the titular hero, he brings an innocent, childlike quality to the Greek warrior, making him more realistic and relatable compared to other portrayals of the same character.Susan Egan has a wonderfully sweet voice making the character Meg seem vulnerable and generating an awful lot of empathy towards her, she is the ultimate damsel in distress and you just now she's going to end up with big Herc at the end of the film (well of course, durr...) James Woods, an acclaimed actor toned it down considerably for his portrayal of Hades, the God of the underworld and the film's antagonist, it's probably the most camp and least threatening version of the character ever, oh but again perfect for kids!My favourite though has to be Phil, voiced by the legendary Danny DeVito..., the little guy is like Herc's mentor, his guardian angel if you will, he provides a lot of comedy relief and elevates his portions of the film considerably. Hercules contains a brilliant musical score, typical of Disney films, evoking the correct emotions and tying into the action appropriately, Herc is a hero is the defining song and sheds a perfect amount of light on the Hercules character. The film was released during the period when Pixar was beginning to find its feet, Toy Story was released two years prior and A Bugs Life and Toy Story 2 released in the coming years, with classic animation in less of a demand and computer imagery starting to take over, Hercules did well to succeed and garner the critically great reception it did. Disney always knows what it's doing and you can always count on them, and Hercules is no different, a lovely film albeit tame and you shouldn't let it slip through your fingers.

datautisticgamer-74853 Hercules is just another Disney movie where generally the positives edge out the negatives. While plenty of moments seemed dull to me, the music was killer (as is expected from almost anything composed by the formidable team of Disney and Alan Menken), plenty of the characters are likable or sufferable, the humor is good, the action is present and stimulating, and it offers new insight to little children about Heracles himself. It is one that I re-watched before considering the challenge of watching all animated Disney movies (which got into theaters), and both times, I enjoyed the concept and execution of the story. I would most definitely say that this film is around 7.2, because there are a few dull moments and strange references that would more fit 1997 Greece than Ancient Greece (including a Scar pelt and two men who resemble John Musker and Ron Clements, who directed this film). See it if you covet the trio of Musker, Clements and Menken, because they can make some excellent stuff (including The Little Mermaid, from what I've heard, and Aladdin).

utgard14 Lackluster Disney movie that tells the story of Hercules. The whole thing lacks creativity, calculatedly following the Disney formula to the letter. We have stupid comic relief sidekicks, cheesy songs, a clichéd story, and lots of dumb in-jokes and references. It's moderately well-made for what it is but 'what it is' is the problem. I thought the voice work was fine and the animation not bad (but nothing terribly impressive). The songs are really lame, including the insufferably corny "Go the Distance." Of the films that came out during Disney's Renaissance period, this is one of the worst. Not a terrible watch when viewed in a bubble but, if you've seen even a few Disney animated films before, this will seem very tired and unoriginal. The worst part of it all is that, despite all the action and comedy, it's incredibly dull.
