The legendary first film that started it all. Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) clashes with the Amazons, among whom we symbolically find Lysia (Lucy Lawless). Everything is in place, Iolaus (Michael Hurst) and Zeus (Anthony Quinn). ()
I used to really love this series and I was looking forward to every adventure. Hercules and Iolaus were a great duo. But watching this pilot film after years, it's truly suffering. The CGI effects are tragic, but that can be forgiven. However, the story is terribly stupid and it's hard to watch without feeling sick. These points are mainly for nostalgia. ()
