Kevin Sorbo Movies
From battling mythical creatures of Greek legend to traveling the universe in an attempt to rebuild a fallen civilization, prolific television actor Kevin Sorbo has proven himself equally adept at thrilling audiences, transporting them to faraway lands, and even keeping them doubled over with laughter.It was his role as the all-powerful son of Zeus in 1994's Hercules and the Amazon Women that originally propelled the strapping Minnesota native into the spotlight, and after reprising the role in no less than four subsequent made-for-television movies, Sorbo settled into the role for a four-year run on Hercules: The Legendary Journeys in 1995. Though his heroic persona failed to translate to the big screen when the 1997 fantasy adventure Kull the Conqueror tanked at the box office, Sorbo continued to thrill television viewers by reprising his role as Hercules on two episodes of Xena: Warrior Princess. While occasional guest appearances in such popular sitcoms as Just Shoot Me, Dharma & Greg, and According to Jim proved that Sorbo wasn't just another pretty face but a surprisingly adept comedic talent as well, it was in a fantasy context that Sorbo truly shined, and in 2000 he set out for a five-year trip to the stars in Andromeda. After that series drew to a close in 2005, Sorbo could be seen in episodes of Two and a Half Men and The O.C. before swinging a stick at small-town injustice in Walking Tall 2 and 3.
When he's not busy acting, Sorbo also acts as the spokesman for "A World Fit for Kids" -- a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping children at risk of dropping out of school, dealing drugs, and joining street gangs. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

From the creators of Scary Movie and Date Movie comes this tongue-in-cheek parody of the sword-and-sandal epics, dubbed Meet the Spartans. The 20th Century Fox production was written and directed by the filmmaking team of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. Sure, Leonidas may have nothing more than a cape and some leather underwear to protect him from the razor-sharp swords of his Persian enemies, but that won't stop the brave leader and his team of 13 warriors from defending their beloved homeland against a powerful invading force that includes the likes of a mutant Paris Hilton, the Transformers, the Ghost Rider, and Rocky Balboa. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, All Movie Guide

A drunken gunfighter, a female outlaw, and three deeply disturbed women discover just what it takes to survive in the wild west when they're targeted by a relentless killer and a jealous husband in this western adventure starring Kevin Sorbo, Lance Henriksen, and Dominique Swain. Preston Biggs (Sorbo) used to be the law in Clearwater, but then his spirit died along with his wife. These days Preston is just another gun-toting drunk, but the new sheriff of Clearwater is about to offer him a deal: escort three women suffering from "prairie fever" back to civilization, and Preston can forget about the debt he incurred by busting up the local saloon. Lettie tried to kill her husband, Abigale proved far too fragile for prairie life, and Bible-quoting Blue just snapped one violent night out on the farm. These women simply can't function in such harsh living conditions, and as Preston leads the group across the prairie plains he happens across a desperate young woman named Olivia (Jamie Anne Allman). Olivia is desperate; she's just escaped from her vengeful partner Monte (Henriksen) and if she doesn't move fast he'll have her head. As chance would have it, Preston could use a girl like Olivia on this trip. But Monte isn't the only one searching for this coveted covered wagon, because Blue's ruthless husband is scouring the plains in search of his missing wife.

Now, as the stubbornly ignorant locals begin falling prey to a mysterious beast, Loren turns to television action star Redd Trucker (Sorbo) in hopes that he will believe her outlandish tale and display the same brand of bravura that made him a small screen superstar while doing battle with a real life monster. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

The fifth and final season of Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda opens as Captain Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo) emerges from a three-year limbo to answer a call from his former second-in-command Beka (Lisa Ryder). He discovers that his once-proud starship, the Andromeda Ascendant, is now a derelict, and that Beka and the other crew members Rhade (Steve Bacic), Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett), and Trance (Laura Bertram) couldn't care less. In fact, they are quite adjusted to being trapped on a woebegone planet in the Seefra solar system, far away from the Known Planets of the New Commonwealth. Thus it behooves Hunt to not only reassemble his crew in order to return to the Commonwealth universe, but also to win their trust and friendship all over again. Missing from the equation is Rommie, the sexy human manifestation of Andromeda's artificial intelligence, who had been destroyed in battle at the end of season four (actually, actress Lexa Doig was on maternity leave, and could only appear in close-ups as the "televised" version of Rommie). In her stead, Harper has assembled another attractive female android named Doyle (Brandy Ledford), who has been invested with the fragments of Rommie's personality -- and who is considerably put out when she realizes she is little more than a clone. Having experienced flashbacks to his troubled past in previous seasons, Hunt is now made privy to his lofty future as a powerful Paradine, making it all the more imperative to get the Andromeda up and running and back in the galaxy, the better to locate the slipstream that will bring it back to the Known Planets. It takes a lot of doing, but ultimately Dylan's old crew agrees to help him reactivate the Andromeda, whereupon they embark on numerous goodwill and rescue missions to the other eight Seefra planets. Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda reaches closure as the Avatars of the Nebula guide Andromeda back on the Route of Ages and toward the safety of the Commonwealth -- where the crew must gird itself for the final all-out battle against their traditional enemies, the Nietzcheans. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

A kid who is still struggling with the loss of a parent has an unexpected challenge thrown in his path in this coming-of-age drama. Adam (Evan Peters) has just wrapped up his last year in middle school, and is waiting out the summer before he enters high school. Adam is still dealing with the death of his mother and younger sister in a car wreck two years earlier. In tribute to them, Adam hasn't cut his hair since the accident, while Adam's father (Chris Eigeman) prefers to blunt his own sorrows by drinking and giving his son bad advice. Given to angry outbursts of violence, Adam finds he's better off turning to his grandmother (Louise Fletcher) or Father Dan (Kevin Sorbo), an open-minded priest who prefers talking to kids on the basketball court rather than in the church rectory. Over the summer, Adam makes friends with Johnny (Bryan Burke), but he also gains an enemy -- Jerry (Donato Mario Alleva), an older student with a bullying personality and a hatred of long hair. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Largely abandoning the self-contained episodes of the previous season and returning to the complex story arcs so beloved of the series' biggest fans, Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda launches its fourth season in syndication. Despite the idealistic efforts of Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo), captain of the starship Andromeda Ascendant, the New Commonwealth is collapsing under the weight of corruption and being undermined by friends and enemies alike. Although Hunt's crew could, if they wished, remain safely on solid ground, they finally agree to help Hunt salvage what is left of the Commonwealth -- and to do this, the Andromeda must hopscotch through slipstreams to various alternate universes in order to enlist allies in the Great Cause. And they'd better hurry: there is an impending apocalypse hanging over the proceedings throughout the season.
The year's pivotal episode is "Soon the Nearing Vortex," in which former crew member Tyr (Keith Hamilton Cobb), now aligned with the enemies of the commonwealth, launches a campaign to unite and rule all Nietzchean prides and thereby control the universe. Tyr not only hopes to steal the Route of Ages, the guide to all existing slipstreams, but he intends to win Hunt's second-in-command Beka (Lisa Ryder) over to his side. The treacherous Tyr is foiled with the help of Telemachus Rhade (Steve Bacic), isolationist leader on the "Old Commonwealth" planet Terazed -- and the look-alike descendant of Generis Rhade, the selfsame scoundrel who during the series' first season betrayed Hunt and left him in a state of suspended animation for 300 years. Despite his inherent distrust of Telemachus, Hunt ultimately invites him to join the Andromeda crew. At the same time, the enigmatic Trance (Laura Bertram) reveals herself to be an avatar of the sun, with the ability to disintegrate her comrades in order to rescue them when danger threatens, then reintegrate them when the danger passes. The season ends with dissension in the ranks of the Andromeda, as the crew expresses disillusionment over the fact that Hunt's dreams of restoring the Commonwealth have not come to pass. The various crew members separate to pursue their own destinies, leaving Dylan and Trance alone to fight off a new Magog attack all by themselves -- but Dylan may be predestined to be the sole survivor! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The Commonwealth is restored, and the crew of Andromeda Ascendant is freed up to embark upon random goodwill and rescue missions, as Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda launches its third season. For the most part eschewing the story arcs of the previous two seasons, the series now contains more self-contained episodes -- a move inaugurated by new executive producer Bob Engels to make the series more user friendly for viewers unfamiliar with its multitude of subplots. Having lost track of one another in the extraterrestrial battle that ended season two, the crew of the Andromeda are rapidly relocated and reassembled: Captain Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo), his second in command Beka Valentine (Lisa Ryder), engineer Seamus Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett), pilot Trance Gemini (Laura Bertram), and mercurial Nietzchean crewman Tyr Anasazi (Keith Hamilton Cobb) -- not to mention Rommie (Lexa Doig), curvaceous human manifestation of Andromeda's artificial intelligence. Among the episodes worth noting this season are "What Happens to a Rev Deffered?," which briefly reunites the crew with their former comrade Rev Bem (Brent Strait), a highly religious member of the otherwise bestial Magog race. In the traditional season-ending cliffhanger, the Andromeda crew is jeopardized when a group of Nietzcheans take over the ship -- whereupon Tyr Anasazi reveals his true colors, a fateful moment that may radically alter the course of everyone's future. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Season two of Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda picks up where season one left off, as Andromeda crew members Tyr (Keith Hamilton Cobb) and Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett) are captured during a battle with the fearsome Magog and injected with millions of Magog eggs. They are rescued by their comrade in arms Rev Bem (Brent Stait), himself a Magog who has pretended to betray the Andromeda on behalf of his own race. Once this matter is settled, Rev decides to leave the Andromeda to embark upon a long soul-searching mission in order to cleanse himself of his race's more bestial tendencies. This leaves Captain Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo) with one fewer crew member to help him rebuild the Commonwealth for its final confrontation with the Magog, but Hunt's loyal aides Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett), Beka (Lisa Ryder), Trance (Laura Bertram), and humanized artificial intelligence Rommie (Lexa Doig) seem more than capable of facing up to the challenge. As for Nietzchean crew member Tyr (Keith Hamilton Cobb), his true loyalties are still very much in question. In the course of preparing for the last battle with the Magog -- not to mention the inevitable head-to-head against a new enemy, the Abyss -- the enigmatic Trance exchanges places with her older, wiser future self, ostensibly to strengthen the Andromeda's battle force, though Dylan Hunt wonders if the new Trance can be trusted. Season two ends on the eve of the signing of a new Commonwealth charter, as the Andromeda gears up to safeguard its allies from thousands upon thousands of phase-shifting warships from another universe. It is at this point that the present Trance confronts her time-shifting former self -- but to what end? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Season one of Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda begins as Captain Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo) of the Systems Commonwealth high guard, is betrayed by his Nietzchean first officer Generis Rhade, whereupon Hunt and his starship, Andromeda Ascendant, are trapped in a black hole and left in frozen stasis for 300 years. During Hunt's long sleep, the Commonwealth collapses when the Nietzcheans declare war on their former allies in general and their hated enemies the Magog in particular. Awakening from suspended animation, Hunt finds that he and the Andromeda are under siege from the "Eureka Maru," a mercenary vessel captained by the beauteous Beka Valentine (Lisa Ryder), who has been hired to capture the Andromeda on behalf of the Nietzcheans. When she realizes that her "allies" plan to stab her in the back, Beka accepts Hunt's invitation to join him on the Andromeda and embark upon a mission to rally support for the restoration of the Commonwealth. Also going along for the ride are crew members Seamus Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett), Trance Gemini (Laura Bertram), and Rev Bem (Brent Stait), the latter a Magog suffering the pangs of conscience over the bestial side of his nature. In addition, Hunt is backed up by Rommie (Lexa Doig), the sexy human manifestation of the Andromeda's artificial intelligence -- and, surprisingly, by maverick Nietzchean Tyr Anasazi (Keith Hamilton Cobb), whose loyalties fluctuate wildly throughout the season. In the season one finale, the Andromeda is attacked by the Magog, who capture Tyr and Harper and inject them with parasitical Magog larvae -- while Rommie, her memory accidentally wiped out, all but sells out everyone on the ship. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Kevin Sorbo makes a guest appearance in his familiar role as legendary muscleman Hercules. Teaming up with old friends Xena (Lucy Lawless) and Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor), Hercules tries to prevent Zeus (Charles Keating) from killing Xena's unborn child -- a move borne of Zeus' fear that the baby will fulfill the prophecy that the Olympian gods will be destroyed by "a child not begotten of man." Meanwhile, Xena heads down to the Underworld in search of the Helmet of Invisibility -- and in the course of her nether travels, she is reunited with her deceased son, Solan (Nicko Vella). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The six-season run of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys comes to a rousing climax involving a genuine, bona fide "monster rally." Perhaps hoping to patch up his differences with his wife, Hera (Meg Foster), the god Zeus (Charles Keating) releases her from bondage. Unfortunately, he also accidentally releases the three Titans -- Helios (Phil Grieve), Oceanus (Andrew Kovacevich), and Atlas (David Press), whose combined powers threaten to destroy both Olympus and the Earth. And there's an added threat in the form of Evander (Joseph Main), the all-powerful son of war god Ares (Kevin Smith). Before our hero Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) is able to bring order out of all this chaos, he finds himself in the thick of his greatest -- and possibly his last -- battle. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

For all intents and purposes, Hercules: The Legendary Journeys had run its course by the end of season five. Even so, the producers wanted to generate a larger syndication package, thus the program was renewed for a sixth season -- consisting of a whole eight episodes. With Hercules' traveling companion Iolaus (Michael Hurst) having returned from the dead at the end of the previous season, there is no reason for Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) not to persist in his mission to right wrongs and champion noble causes during his handful of remaining journeys. Again wandering far afield from his native Greece, the mighty muscleman finds himself in ancient Dacia (a.k.a. Transylvania) for a too-close encounter with the infamous Vlad the Impaler, and in Egypt, where Hercules saves Queen Nefertiti from an assassination attempt. Closer to home, Hercules attempts to aid King Oedipus of Crete to regain his throne from the usurping Creon and even prevents a holdup at the First Bank of Greece in Thracia. The climactic episode finds Hercules' immortal father, Zeus (formerly played by Anthony Quinn and Roy Dotrice, now enacted by Charles Keating), attempting to patch up his differences with his wife, Hera (Meg Foster), whose jealousy toward Zeus's half-human son Herc served as motivation for the entire series. As had occurred in virtually every previous episode of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, the 111th and final installment ends with a humorous "disclaimer," assuring the viewers that nobody was really hurt -- not even gods, demigods, or monsters -- throughout the entire six-year run, though Ancient Mythology itself was given something of a beating! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
