Zero to Hero


There have been many many many adaptations of Hercules but none of them are as good as this one.

Disney found a way to take the legend of Hercules and make it child friendly but still awesome.

They make Hercules a relatable character by making him an awkward teenager who can't seem to do anything right or fit in anywhere. He has to figure out who he is and whether ornot his lineage dictates who he is.

Meanwhile he starts falling for a sarcastic girl named Meg. She's a really funny character and her quick wit makes the movie hilarious. And let's not forget all the mythical creatures and Greek mythology thrown into the mix. Centaurs and fauns and angry gods, oh my!

Hercules must fight his way through obstacles in order to prove that he truly understands what it means to be a hero.

It's a fantastic kid's movie but there are some gross parts. I used to watch it on repeat as a kid. There’s singing of course because this is a Disney movie. The songs are catchy and memorable. If you haven’t seen Hercules, I would suggest watching it. It’s a great film.
