"Hercules Returns"

`Sixties Italian sword-and-sandal epic dubbed into Australian. Not English, Australian. Very funny. Also very rude. But in a good way.

I agree! I was very impressed with his performance in that movie considering he only had body movements and voice to get his emotions across. It was very well done. And the end of the movie made me cry.

Where all the people came out.

Indeed. It must be hard to act when nobody can actually see your facial expressions. His voice is great though. I don't think any other actor could have pulled that off better.

Favorite movie?
Well, there can be no competition to the Lord of the Rings. It is the best movie series of all time...

That's an interesting one that I didn't finish. I meant to, though. I was expecting more of a comedy than I got, though, so it surprised me a bit. Good concept, though, to take two undeveloped (right? I haven't actually read or seen - the latter being the way it was meant to be experienced, after all - Hamlet, but I'm assuming that the playwright chose two bit characters?) characters and making a play about them.

I would have to say "Sin City" was one of my favorites.

Precisely, ravaged_warrior. It is all seen from R&G's point of view, and all the movie develops in a "backstage" dimension. But R&G have a problem...they are minor characters, nobody ever cared about them, so they start with some difficulties: which one is Rosencrantz and which one is Guildenstern? Who are they? why can't they remember anything of their lives? What is their purpose in life? And, moreover...why do they have to die? This is something everybody wonder about....sadly the answer for the two (or maybe for everybody...) it's always the same: "You are Rosencrantz and Guidenstern...that's all".
More than a comedy, it is a tragicomedy.

Literature wereteacher mode: ON
Read "Hamlet"!

And watch the movie entirely!
