I came into this movie with low expectations, then this movie went lower than those expectations, that is how bad this movie was. Ever cliche that is associated with a fantasy movie was here, not one hair of cliche was out of place. There is no logic or even any semblance of structure to anything in this movie which would be all right if this movie just decided it was going to be over the top and then acted accordingly. But this movie takes itself way to seriously as its inner logic betrays everything about it.
The only saving grave about this movie was the side characters around Hercules. They were way more interesting than any aspect of this movie. I just wish the writers could have figured that out. It reminded me of the movie Kingdom of Heaven with Liam Neeson and his band of merry knights that died about 20 minutes into the movie despite the fact they were all way more interesting than Orlando Bloom's character who then had to support the whole movie. At least in this movie they didn't kill off the more interesting characters, they just didn't have the common sense to give them more scenes.
