This film deserves at least some credit for having pretty good color effects. This was again in the early days of color. The acting and dialogue aren't even that bad. I will say that it's still a bad movie and you shouldn't recommend it. It's mostly because the plot is hard to follow. Then again, I'm not sure if it's that the plot itself is hard to follow, it's just that you don't really care. Most of us are probably familiar with Greek mythology. They reference the names a lot, but there isn't enough of a story to really care.
The final battle scene isn't bad, but what weighs this film down is the hokey acting. I feel bad for not knowing everyone's names. I mean, it's not a memorable movie, but you'd think I'd least know the names of the figures from classical Mythology. It just doesn't do it any justice. The weirdest part is probably when this one guy randomly goes nuts on the bed. I think this may be the longest movie ever featured on "Mystery Science Theater 3000". I've heard the running time be 105 or 107 or just 96 minutes. I only saw 75 minutes on the version, but I'm too lazy to go and watch the whole full version. I just think that version is enough and besides, it's nothing to write home about. *1/2
