One of my favourite Disney animation films, very underrated. Has beautiful songs and three dimensional characters!

The definition of a meh film, at least for me. 'Hercules' doesn't stick a connection, I felt very unfulfilled throughout. I have little negatives, yet there isn't much the other way either. I like the cast, but that's honestly about it. James Woods, Danny DeVito and Rip Torn all give noteworthy performances in the roles of Hades, Phil and Zeus. However, Tate Donovan as the titular character is forgettable, as is Roger Bart's voice when Hercules sings. Bart isn't helped by the very average music, none of which is memorable to me. The plot is mild, one that is quite easy to predict and doesn't produce any thrilling moments. The animation is actually OK, satisfactory for sure. I can see this is very well rated by others, which I respect. For me, though, it isn't any good.

One of my favorite Disney movies. Such a great heartfelt plot that everyone can relate to. The music is iconic and uplifting as it fits in perfectly with the good plot development. The story follows the kidnapping of a child of the gods and how that child realizes the real truth when he grows up and how he goes to the ends of the Earth to fulfill his destiny and reunite with his birth parents.

[6.1/10] If you pull back from Disney’s *Hercules*, it’s remarkable how solid the characters’ arcs and motivations are. Hercules wants to become a “true hero” in the hopes that it will help take him to “somewhere he belongs”, i.e. Mount Olympus. Phil wants to train a hero who the world More

Undoubtedly one of the better 1990s Disney films. The story and animation are very much centre stage with the music much less important - no big power ballads! It is a fun take on the Herculean mythology of ancient Greece. Beginning with a suitably grand opening narrative from Charlton Heston, no le More
