Product: The Odyssey [VHS] (1997)
Rating: 4.0
A good adaptation of the classic tale
I was happily suprised when I saw this because usually I do not enjoy Network Television mini-series, however this is one exception to the rule. Armand Assante does a great job portraying the Ancient Greek Hero Odysseus and Greta Scacci as his faithful wife. The special effects are outstanding and blend into the story well especially when Odysseus travels down into Hades to speak with his mother. Vanessa Williams, Bernadette Williams and other guest stars add to the story and make the plot richer. This is highly recommended to all who enjoy The Odyssey and a good adventure as well.
