Director: Renny Harlin
Cast: Kellan Lutz , Rade Serbedzija , Scott Adkins , Gaia Weiss , Roxanne McKee , Liam Garrigan , Liam McIntyre , Johnathon Schaech , Luke Newberry
Plot: In Ancient Greece 1200 B.C., a queen succumbs to the lust of Zeus to bear a son promised to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the king and restore peace to a land in hardship. But this prince, Hercules, knows nothing of his real identity or his destiny. He desires only one thing: the love of Hebe, Princess of Crete, who has been promised to his own brother. When Hercules learns of his greater purpose, he must choose: to flee with his true love or to fulfill his destiny and become the true hero of his time. The story behind one of the greatest myths is revealed in this action-packed epic - a tale of love, sacrifice and the strength of the human spirit.

My Movie Review: The movie is a good choice to start the year, new cast to look forward set in ancient times. I can see some scenes from different movies like Gladiator's grandest arena, 300's sculpted men with shields and Immortals Gods powerful forces. Kellan Lutz got it right, big break that fits his huge build to the role of the Mighty Hercules.
My Favorite Character: Hercules

He is best known as the strongest of all mortals. Stronger than others he was the deciding factor in allowing the Olympians to win their battle with the giants. He was the last mortal son of Zeus. He is the only man born of mortal woman to become a God upon his death.
