Disney's Hercules Revelations That Prove It's An Underrated Movie Worthy Of Its Own Laurels
When you think about hard tasks, you’d weigh out those you think you can do and some that are almost impossible. Tasks that you think would only be accomplished with herculean strength.
You might’ve heard about this greek god who just so happened to be the Disney character that had to go the distance. All of his efforts worked towards finding himself and being seen as a hero-god like he was born to be.
Hercules was a film released by Disney on 1997. This was a tale surrounding the son of Zeus being kidnapped by Hades’ cronies and stripped of almost all of his godly abilities.
He had to be raised by mortals, and although he loved them truly, he never felt like he ever belonged there. He then went on a quest, asking help from a ‘gods and goddesses trainer’ while also stumbling across a human he was bound to love.
The film is a classic animated film, filled with songs that are very nostalgic. It’s been part of the Disney discussions and general online content as well.
Now, of course, with all of this talk, there’s bound to be hot takes about the movie. Whether it’s about the difference in the origin story of this movie, to the lovely muses, Hercules definitely sparked conversations and questions.

Hercules was a movie that captured the essence of striving for what you dream of. Despite struggles and continued sabotage, he stayed true to himself and checked himself when he became arrogant.
He also showed how far he would go for people that he loves. This movie is filled with inspiration and lessons and is what makes it a classic Disney animated movie.
