For decades now the Greek myth of Hercules has always been something of B movie gold that began with a series of Italian made movies in the 1950s-1960s. Then there was the Arnold Schwarzenegger camp classic Hercules in New York in 1969. Who can forget the Sam Rami produced television show Hercules with Kevin Sorbo, which ruled syndicated cable in the 1990s. Almost a precursor to the modern superhero blockbusters like Thor: The Dark World, this half man half God has been something of a schlock staple of popular culture. It was only a matter of time till he showed back up on screen, this time helmed by the notorious action director Reny Harlin in The Legend of Hercules. To begin with it’s usually never a good sign when a movie this big has a release date in the dead of January when the leftovers of 2013 are still having their last hurray at the box office. By the looks of the end result of this film the studio wanted to rip the band-aid off quickly. Cherry picking from the richer material of Gladiator, 300, and the Starz series Spartacus, the result of Legend of Hercules is all too by-the-numbers and far too kitschy take on the material. Maybe kitsch is unavoidable when tackling Hercules on screen, but is it too much to ask to steer clear of yet another rehash of the soldier to slave plot device of Spartacus? The filmmakers had the rich world of mystical Greek Gods, and this is the best the screenwriters could come up with? The film at least starts a little promising with a brief appearance of Hera visiting Hercules’s mother queen Alcmene (Roxanne McKee), informing her of Zeus’s grand plan for the birth of her son.

involves the under the covers ravaging of Alcmene by an invincible Zeus. There could have been interesting places to explore with a God’s interacting with mortals plot line, but sadly from there on out, the story goes on autopilot.Looking as if the captain of the football team got his big break in the school play, Kellan Lutz plays Hercules, and boy is this casting puzzling. Lutz looks far too corn fed American good old boy for the role. With some bronzer put on his body the filmmakers tried to pass this young man as a Grecian. I’d be curious to see how well this movie would play in Europe in regards to this dull casting choice. Even Lutz’s lean muscular physique seems a bit off for playing this larger than life character. Give me the syndicated television incarceration of Hercules Kevin Sorbo any day. Now there was one hunk of a man who looked like he could bench press a boulder, and take down a massive lion. While Lutz holds his weight in the fighting scenes, he never quite packs the punch a beefier type would have brought to roll. While Legend of Hercules is not as visually low rent as the film making feels, at times the movie has a bit of a missed opportunity vibe. In the right hands this could have been a little more fun, but the route the filmmakers take is too by the numbers of what nicely fits into this genre. One of the better used supporting players of the movie are Scott Adkins as the villainous father figure to Hercules, who chews through the scenery whenever brought onscreen. I guess we’ll have to wait for Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson’s pass on the material to see if it can fill the void of where this movie lacks.
