Summary: I CAN'T BELIEVE I WATCHED THE WHOLE THING!
Comment: THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST MOVIE I EVER SAW. THE ONLY LAUGHTER WAS AT MYSELF FOR ACTUALLY SITTING THROUGH THE WHOLE THING. ITS SAVING GRACE WAS DUE TO ARNOLD STANG. HE'S AN AWESOME ACTOR AND EVEN HIS PART WAS KORNY. HOW COULD THEY EVER HAVE MADE THIS MOVIE IN THE FIRST PLACE?Hercules in New York IF YOU ARE CRAZY ENOUGH TO BUY IT PLEASE PLAN TO GIVE IT AS A GAG GIFT. IT'S NOT FOR PRESERVING.

Summary: Campy fun...
Comment: I remember catching this movie in the wee hours of the morning (some time around 3am) and laughing. A lot. This movie was a lot of fun; the dubbing made it all the more amusing.
I give this movie 4 stars because in terms of being a "good movie" I.E. Oscar material, it is not. I seriously doubt they were going for that in the first place, so does it really matter? Was Commando Oscar material? No - but it was still hilarious, intentional or not.
I suggest watching this over pizza with your friends... possibly after staying up for long periods of time. Great fun - I love it.

Summary: How dare you touch Hercules!
Comment: Hercules introduced the world to Arnold. Who would have known that the man starring in this film would soon be a governor of California?
You really can't blame Arnold for starring in this film. The film was a great start for Arnold, and it fits him well. His charming personality that makes him so popular really shows in this film. Every sentence that Arnold utters in this movie is memorable.
The acting in the movie is typical of a low budget film. Half the time, it seems like everyone is reading off a cue card somewhere off camera. Most notably Arnold appears to be having difficulty with some dialogs; half the time he stares awkwardly like he's trying to read a cue card somewhere off camera. Apart from the cheesy dialogs, the chorography is comical and unbelievable. Half the time it appears Arnold is just randomly running around doing things for no apparent reason. From stopping a forklift while running away from a gang of thugs, to fighting a bear that is obviously a man in a cheap five dollars costume, the film is non-stop hilarious.
Arnold first movie might be considered horrible, but despite all of its shortcomings, I think the movie was well made. It fits Arnold's charming self, and it introduced the world to Arnold as an actor. If anything can be said about Arnold is that he looked huge in this movie. Aside from Conan and perhaps the first Terminator, Arnold was probably the biggest he ever been in Hercules and that made him fit the role well. Personally, I would recommend this film for any true Arnold fan. This is a rare movie and it's a good movie despite the low budget.

Summary: Traffic in the Land of Gods
Comment: This is extremely entertaining. I was particularly tickled by the scenes of Zeus commanding something or other with the sounds of honking cars in the back ground!
