Director: Brett Ratner
Cast: Dwayne Johnson , Ian McShane , John Hurt , Rufus Sewell , Joe Anderson , Irina Shayk , Joseph Fiennes , Ian Whyte , Ingrid Bolso Berdal , Peter Mullan , Robert Maillet 
Plot: Nearly 3,200 years ago, a tormented soul walked the Earth as neither man nor God: Hercules, powerful son of the God-king Zeus, and for this he received nothing but suffering. After 12 arduous labors and the loss of his family, this dark, world-weary soul turned his back on the Gods, finding solace only in bloody battle. Over the years, he warmed to the company of six similar souls, bonded by their love of fighting and the presence of death never questioning where they go or who they fight, just how much they will be paid. Now the King of Thrace has hired these mercenaries to turn his men into the greatest army of all time, which means training them to be as bloodthirsty and ruthless as their own reputation. It is time for this band of lost souls to finally have their eyes opened to how far they have fallen and the narrow, perilous path to their own redemption.

My Movie Review: The movie is like a comfort food, you will always want it because of its typical action-adventure you will get to it. The serpents on the river, the beast in the winter and the lion at the cave, makes me wonder a world full of surprises. The battles were epic to the extent it boost your energy and took your breath once in a while. This version of Hercules is worth seeing cause you'll know his legend and your in for a treat for tuning in.
My Favorite Lines: "No matter how far you go, man cannot escape his fate. Who are you? Are you a murderer? Are you a mercenary who turns his back on the innocent? We believe in you! We have faith in you! Remember the deeds you have performed, the labors you have overcome! Are you only the legend or are you truth behind the legend? Now, tell me, who are you?" "I am Hercules!"
