""if?" If is good." (Pain and Panic)
"It's only half-time." (Hades)
ughhhhh so I hadn't seen Hercules since its release in 1997. And it hasn't aged well. I remembered that I thought is was slightly stupid and not that memorable. On that note nothing has changed. However, now that I am older I notice that the jokes are flat, the plot blah, and the storytelling silly. Honestly, I guess that having a narrator(s) is in the best classic Greek tradition.....but the gospel thing just doesn't work and they make the story third party and create a dearth of audience investment.
Ratings:
Paul Shaffer: You wrote It's Raining Men Any movie with you is worth seeing
Greeks: Skip it (..but it is a true Tragedy)
Script Writers: Skip it (when jokes are bad they are just forced and bad. exp: "Gee Herc, they think you're the greatest thing since they put the pocket in pita." (eye roll -unforgiving groan)
GODS: Skip it
Dany Devito: You are unscathed. (could be worse.)
On a scale of Tartarus to TARDIS, I give Hercules 2.6 out of 5 stars.
