Stometer Save your money for something good and enjoyable

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

jmckenna2 Sorry. I know you're all reviewing the TV series. Found that odd, since I got to the review page from the movie page, not the TV show page...Apart from that, after the five minute intro Vegas song and dance crap, followed by Hercules being born on Mount Olympus to Zeus and Hera. followed by Hades 'Turning him Mortal', I managed to make it to the DVD player to turn it off.I was absolutely disgusted from the first moment that all of these Hollywood stars would put their names on this piece of horribly inaccurate trash just because it was Disney. perhaps after several bottles of Pepto Bismol, I'll be able to watch it further and find out how exactly Hercules' life went with a loving Goddess mother instead of a spiteful jealous Goddess that tried to kill him his entire life, causing him to achieve the amazing feats that he was famous for.I'm sure a minor detail like that won't affect the life of the son of the greatest God in Greek mythology. Really, it's OK, I swear.But, since we seem to be reviewing the TV series here, let me just say .. woohoo!!! I LOVE IT!!! It's better than Recess and the Smurfs combined, tossed together with a little bit of Schneider from 'One Day at a Time'!!

Op_Prime When Disney released their Hercules movie, it was so obvious a cartoon series was going to be made. I thought the series would be a piece of garbage because I had seen what Disney had been offering Saturday mornings I decided to give it a chance and I was really surprised. The series was good and funny. I would put this show up with Disney's other great animated series, Darkwing Duck and Gargoyles to name a couple.

buffy-40 I never saw the Hercules movie but I have seen loads of episodes of the TV series and it is a very funny show which adults will appreciate as well as kids.It's quite educational in the fact that you get to know a lot about Greek Mythology.The most astonishing thing about it is the voice over cast with the likes of Tate Donovan, French Stewart, Sandra Bernhard and James Woods among the regulars. And an amazing guest star cast which has seen everything from Sarah Michelle Gellar, Jenifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow to William Shatner and Robert Stack doing voices.To sum up a very witty show.

Gislef Hercules hits all the typical Disney/kid-show notes, delivering moral messages and a lot of humor. Like the original Disney movie, but unlike shows like Aladdin and Little Mermaid, Hercules toss in lots of modern-day in-joking which keeps it somewhat interesting for the adults (like myself) to watch while the kiddies enjoy the show. There's also a lot of quality voice talent assembled here (how did they ever get James Woods??). Overall, this somewhat skewed look at Greek mythology is humorous enough.
