Rating: - Love It!
I'm nineteen years old... and I STILL love Disney, this movie especially. Historical re-tellings are the best Disney movies. They provide a bit of culture to the audience, whom are usually children. It's a great way to sneak education into their entertainment. While the history isn't always exactly accurate, or the re-telling of the myth... it still has value. Ignore the poo-pooing of the accuracy and animation buffs. IT'S A CARTOON. For entertainment! Lighten up, folks. Hercules gives us the buildings-roman part of the story and is obviously the main focus... but really, the other characters are the best. Meg is wise-cracking and street-smart, Hades is smooth-talking and evil, Phil is a crabby yet lovable mentor, the Muses are sexy and snappy, and the Fates and that eyeball are way too cool. This movie is a bit gorey and I wouldn't recommend it for young-young children, older ones would probably get a kick out it.

Rating:  - Not suitable for younger children
As was pointed out in a recent Journal of the American Medical Association some G rated films are entirely too violent. This is one of them. It is not suitable for younger children at all. There are complicated themes of Hades (Hell), evil, and about one quarter of it is pure violence. On top of all of that it is not even good. It's clunky, and lacks a truely engaging story. Some of the voices in the film are wickedly annoying, though I thought James Woods wasn't bad.
Rating: - Hercules
This movie is one of the best Disney movies created in animation. First off, Megara was there making all the other Disney Heroines cower at her feet because she is more tough and witty then they would ever be, and she is so different from all of them. Sure, this story is totally off the original myth, but it teaches kids to compare and contrast from the real thing if you put it that way. I absolutly love the style of music, with the Muses and all the other inspirational songs such as Go the Distance. I Won't Say (I'm in Love) was sung beautifully by Susan Egan. Her voice brought out the attitude and sass in Meg, and how perfect the hunky naiveness in Hercules is. The romance between those two is amazing, better then other Disney Classics. The colors and animation is one of the best seen, and I have to say nods to Disney on this. It's a true shame, it didn't get more welcoming then it should have. Way to skip it's tenth annaversary in 2007 also Disney, no offense. But come on, this DVD needs more EXTRAS!!!!!!!
Rating: - Very Satisfied
I think we all know about Disney's Hercules, so let's talk about the shipping...it was great. Fast, efficient, in tact. Great! I bought the movie for my brothers and they love it!
