Never judge a movie by it's actors

First of all,the Disney version of Hercules is way more better than this version.At first,I wanted to watch 22 Jump Street,but one of my friends was so eager to watch this movie.He said that "The trailer was awesome dude!".So far,all the trailers for new upcoming movies are damn good,but not all the movies are good as the trailers.So,at the end of this movie,there was no satisfaction among four of us.It was mundane and typical like any other Greek-based movies.This version of Hercules have did not have something bizarre in it,which is very disappointing.For me,I like to watch movies with some aberration,so it will gives me good vibes and memories with my friends.I have to say,it is kind of tedious.

The Hercules that we all knew in the living myths was so strong,as his father Zeus,the God among Gods,got married with a normal human being.(I can't recall his mother's name).The Hercules that acted by Dwayne Johnson was strong,but the thing is he was assisted with sidekicks.I think that it is contradicts with the living myth.In the movie,Hercules was given 12 daunting tasks in order for the official-wife-of-Zeus to accept him in the family of the Gods.He did it,but with help from his comrades.He was expelled from Athens as he was accused from killing hi own family.This was the funny part actually.There is a king who sought for Hercules's help to kill Hydra.Yup,he did it.He even bring the head of the lifeless Hydra to the king.Eventually,the king was afraid that he will take over his kingdoms,as the people adored Hercules.So,the king gambits a devilish plan,to expel Hercules from Athens.He put sort of drugs in Hercules's drink.So,Hercules fell asleep.The king unleashed three deadly wolves to slaughter his family.Yeah,he was been expelled from Athens,for 'killing' his own family.

The thing is,wolf's claws and fangs are slightly different from man-made sword.The wound inflicted by wolves are different compared to wounds inflicted by swords.Were the wolves carrying swords until all of the people around him accused him for killing his own family?Were they blind o something,a lovey father would never killed his own family.I must say,Dwayne Johnson was not suitable to be a leader,he just lacked the aura of a true leader.He was a good actor,The Pacifier,Fast and Furious,The Game Plan,he nailed it.It was just the role did not suited him.Overall,Hercules was a mediocre movie.I would not suggest this movie for all of you.

This is better
