Hercules in New York- 1970, directed by Allan Siedelman, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger
He says- Hercules journeys to Earth from Mount Olympus and gets mixed up with wrestling promoters-and mobsters- in this lumbering comedy. Inept, but irresistible for the opportunity to watch a young, badly dubbed Schwarzenegger in his movie debut (his original dialogue was restored for the dvd). Reissued as hercules-the movie at 82 minutes, and Hercules Goes Bananas at 75 minutes. 1 and a half stars.
I say- this movie is unintentionally hysterical. I would recommend watching it under the influence, as Hercules wrestling a bear is a sight to see as is Arnold continually announcing that he is Hercules. I got the version that was dubbed, but was able to watch the scene where he throws the discus in original Arnie English. 2 stars.
