Typical Disneyfication of a well-known story. The musical numbers were a bit on the uninspiring side, and some of the computer-driven stuff was pretty lame. Still, the film has a nice sense of humor, unlike some other recent Disney entries (especially the deadly grim story of Pocahontas). James Woods is surprisingly amusing as the voice of Hades, and a handful of other celebrity voices rounds out the cast nicely. Side note: very time someone in this flick says “the Mighty Hercules,” all I can think of is: “stop saying the Mighty Hercules.” Die-hard Saturday Night Live fans will recognize the joke. Mildly amusing
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
