Hercules
Hercules
Dwayne Johnson | Ian McShane | Rufus Sewell | Aksel Hennie
Brett Ratner directs this muscular take on Hercules’ legend — though not the typical Greek hero story.
Here, Hercules leads a band of mercenaries hired to protect a kingdom, while myths about his past grow larger than life.
Johnson is commanding and charismatic, bringing both strength and dry humor to the role. McShane plays a wise mentor, while Hennie offers fierce loyalty as his right-hand man.
The action is brutal, the dialogue punchy, and the tone leans more fantasy than historical.
