Unique visuals and a great villain steal the show.

Rating: 6/10 (14 October 2017)

I must say that after watching this childhood time-stealer, I found it a little underdeveloped. Hades and his sidekicks pain and panic have become more entertaining over the years while Hercules, Zeus and Megara have worn out a little. Mostly Herc whose conflict is as generic as can be.
The visual style is unique to put it neutrally. I personally think it is the ugliest of the Disney renaissance era, but that's not the main problem with this movie. Its uninteresting characters are the problem as I stated in the beginning. Hades makes this movie worth watching and he gets a laugh out of me every time he is on screen and that is great.
Despite its problems it has spawned one of my favorite Disney songs, though. "I Won't Say I'm In Love" is a really catchy tune and along with "Go The Distance" the most memorable songs in the movie.
Maybe Hercules' unique visual style and the standout performance of James Woods as Hades serves in its favor to make it memorable. Just the weirdness of it in general.
One of my least favorite movies from the Disney renaissance, but I can appreciate its existence.
