New take on Hercules

By JONATHON HOWARD

The legend of Hercules is well known. But in the latest blockbuster, the story begins after the legend.
Haunted by a sin from his past, Hercules has become a mercenary. Along with five faithful companions, he travels ancient Greece selling his services for gold and using his legendary reputation to intimidate enemies.
But when the benevolent ruler of Thrace and his daughter seek Hercules’ help to defeat a savage and terrifying warlord, Hercules finds that in order for good to triumph and justice to prevail, he must again become the hero he once was. He must embrace his own myth. He must be Hercules.
Staring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and directed by Brett Ratner, the first instalment of this icon tale takes views on an action-packed journey through ancient Greece with spectacular cinematography.
Watch it in 3D or traditional 2D in comfort with state-of-the-art sound and picture quality at Noosa 5 Cinemas.
