Hercules (1983)
4/10
Ridiculous, even for me!

I accept bad movies with low budgets. But usually, its hard to me accept really, really bad movies with a reasonable budget! And "Hercules" is flagrant case. I know that Yoran and Globus productions are a quite "B", but they are reasonable in terms of cache, actually they are pretty reasonable for the "B" universe. I think Luigi Cozzi (the director), did a mediocre movie. The plot is absurd, makes no sense! King Minos is the bad guy? King Minos? but why? And what the hell are that robots? (Ray Harryhausen rip off?)If Hercules is so strong why he makes a such a brutal effort in a sword fight against normal human beings?? Well we never know..Oh one more thing, Daedalus, evil? a woman??!!...no comments.. With that budget, many directors could been done a much better movie.. But not everything is terrible in this movie, if you are in the mood for bad movies, call friends,and watch this incredible comedy! Tremendous fun! Trust me! If if you like this one, i recommend: "Hercules 2"(Luigi Cozzi) and maybe "Battle Beyond Stars" (well, don't ask me why, but i find similarities)"
