This is also what makes the film more attractive (or the only attractive thing) in terms of the theme. The opening is still mythical, and after deconstructing all aspects of the myth, the ending is reduced to an overhead epic. The most obvious is the description of the centaurs and the oracles. The former's real body was revealed, which completely overturned the shaky mythological tone. The latter repeated a "die today" joke several times, emphasizing that fate is in your own hands. The bosom friend in the truth. Although there are no gods in the film, the director likes to take pictures of god-level shots. Needless to say, when the army is on an expedition and when the two armies confront each other, even when camping, it is necessary to show that there are many people, a lot of land, a lot of money, and at the end, a regular epic film is made. Out of a dash of the momentum of a disaster movie. At this time, Hercules, the son of mortals, also exploded with astonishing power that is truly comparable to that of the Son of God, toppling the statue of God, and using a symbolic and explicit feat to completely complete the materialism road of breaking superstition and advocating science. Of course, some people can't help but ask, why do mortals have such earth-shattering power? Maybe it's a hint that the end of science is theology, but who cares, the movie is already over at this time.
It is very pointless to discuss the plot of this film, of course, it is not without plot, but it is more solid compared to "300 Warriors", which is also adapted from the comics. The story itself is quite childish, and the audience must carefully hide their IQ. Fortunately, the characters are all thick lines, and the relationship between the characters is simple and clear. The highlights that echo from the beginning to the end will carry out the deconstruction to the end (the legend of Hercules at the beginning of the movie and the animation at the end correspond to every interesting point of deconstruction, which should not be missed.), quite thoughtful. It is often said that Hollywood promotes individual heroism. In fact, Hollywood most implements the concept of the supremacy of the collective. Even a typical lone hero like Hercules can be incorporated into the team to fight. Isn't that enough to explain the problem?
