Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTo help Arnold Schwarzenegger get the role, his agent said he had years of "stage" experience, implying theater. But in fact, Schwarzenegger had only appeared on bodybuilding stages.
- GoofsA mix of the Greek and the Roman names for Gods are used in the film. In the films finale, both the Greek god Atlas (the only person holding the sky up over the earth) and Samson, who is in fact a Biblical character, to help Hercules are called upon
- Alternate versionsIn the original theatrical version, and older VHS versions, Arnold Schwarzenegger's voice is dubbed over by another actor. The DVD version released by Trimark Entertainment has both the original audio track, and a track with Schwarzenegger's real voice (the track also used for the newer VHS versions). In all versions, the voice of Hercules on the radio at the end is of the dub actor.
- ConnectionsFeatured in Siskel & Ebert: Arnold Schwarzenegger: The Unlikeliest Star (1990)

Wow, this movie has to be seen to be believed! I can't believe that Arnold "Pretzie" Stang was overlooked AGAIN by the Academy! A finer piece of work I have not seen! Except perhaps by that guy in the bear suit. Now that was some great acting as well.
Of course, this is all from the perspective of being drunk, which is what you would have to be to like this movie! :P
