Herkules neve a földöntúli erőt, a hihetetlen bátorságot és hatalmas győzelmeket jelenti. Ő az az ember, akinek ereje meghaladja minden halandóét, ő az, akire nem hatnak a kecsegtető ígéretek a gonosz szájából, ő az, aki - majdnem - elpusztíthatatlan. Egy gyönyörű hercegnőnek ő a megvalósult álom. Egy leigázott város szemében ő a meghallgatott imádság. Amikor pedig felveszi a harcot a városért és álmai asszonyáért, ő az, aki legyőzhetetlen. Legalábbis eleinte így néz ki. (Viasat 3)

An ancient myth reworked through the lens of the Universe People. Hercules is a wonderful example of the Munchausen-esque creativity of 1980s Italian trash flicks – a completely phantasmagorical screenplay, cobbled-together mechanical monsters, DIY special effects, theatrically lit studio scenes, something constantly happening but with zero momentum or dramatic gradation. The wooden Lou Ferrigno evidently mastered only one expression, namely perplexed amazement, which is probably why the filmmakers decided to shoot Hercules as a psychedelic new-age fable, so that they could make dramatic use of his bodybuilder’s physique as frequently as possible.

When I was a kid, I really liked this. I know the plot lacked any logic and the movie was poorly shot overall, but it was fun and hilarious. That was enough for me as a little squirt. I sometimes think back with nostalgia to the muscle-bound Lou Ferrigno (who played a tougher Hercules than Arnold did a few years before him) and his journeys through space, though not as often as I would like.
