To me, this movie is perfection.

A brilliant film that helped define a genre

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

I remember waking up at the crack of dawn early Saturday mornings just to catch this on ABC and airing simultaneously in syndication. Anyway, I was impressed on how many celebrities signed on to voice characters, however, I did note that two of my personal favorites were missing, "The Golden Girls'" Bea Arthur and Broadway's Bernadette Peters, but I digress.I enjoy still enjoy the show which now airs on the Toon Disney Channel and I recommend it for the celebrity cameo appearances.

....and one that's *way* more than halfways intelligent- indeed one needs to be half way through highschool to get half the jokes- and a few years of college don't hurt either. Hilarious,wonky, bittersweet and adorable the series follows the adventures of young teen Herc and his friends as they grow up during their high school years with surprising realism and candor for what looks at first to be a standard Saturday morning kiddie cartoon. Take the time to discover it and you''ll find it's possibly the best series Disneys ever done with Broadway quality show tunes and over 160 TV and movie guest star voices ranging from Garrison Keillor to William Shatner. James Woods and French Stewart fans are in for a special treat.Disneys Hercules the TV Series

I absolutely loved this movie and sometimes I watch the cartoon as well. It was so good! Everyone in the cinema was laughing whenever Hades(James Woods) went onto the screen.It was a really great movie! I really loved all the singing by the Muses.If you haven't seen it by now then you have just missed one of the greatest Disney movies ever created.

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.
