The Legend of Hercules stars Kellan Lutz as the mythical Greek hero - the son of Zeus, a half-god, half-man blessed with extraordinary strength. Betrayed by his stepfather, a tyrant king, and exiled and sold in to slavery because of a forbidden love, Hercules must use his formidable powers to fight his way back to his rightful kingdom. Through harrowing battles and gladiatorial death matches, Hercules embarks on a legendary odyssey to overthrow the King and restore peace to the land. (Lionsgate Home Entertainment)

I love Greek myths and this has nothing to do with them. It's historically a mixture of Greek, Roman, and possibly even some Egyptian history. As for the story, it takes only the names of some characters from mythology, but their stories are told completely differently. Primarily, it's simply an action spectacle that quite impressed me in some places. But overall, it's just terrible. Why couldn't it have been about a fictional hero instead? It would still be a bad film, but at least it wouldn't ruin a character I love.
