Dwayne Johnson's Hercules was better

Don't get me wrong both were poor movies but i found Hercules to be more like Conan the Destroyer, enjoyable for what it was and better action scenes. This Conan however had nothing going for it.

I agree. Hercules was more enjoyable as the film didn't take itself too seriously. Conan tried to be too overly dramatic and grim and that didn't work for me.

There is only ONE real Hercules : Lou Ferrigno !

Why ?

Because he punches a bear into outer space !!! (I'm not lying, look it up !)

They don't make movies like that anymore :(

Agree, way better.

Cinematographer Dante Spinotti made it look gorgeous.
