Hoping to avert a war between the Spartans and the Eleans in the village of Propontus, Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) and Atalanta (Cory Everson) organize a series of peaceful athletic competition. Ever angling for a profitable publicity stunt, itinerant peddlar Salmoneus (Robert Trebor) comes up with an enticing name for the upcoming event: The Olympic Games. Spoiling the spirit of fair play is the very unsportsmanlike -- and very deadly -- Tarkon (Chris Bailey), who, with the aid of war god Ares, is determined to win the games no matter what the cost in human lives. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Cory shows viewers the proper way to lift weights and provides clear instructions for all of this video's routines. Each upper body part receives special attention. The chest area, shoulders, and triceps are toned and strengthened the most. Those who wish to make this workout a bit tougher can hit the pause button and add an another repetition or two where desired. Cory's enthusiasm helps keep viewers motivated. Be sure to buy some weights in advance so that these routines can be as beneficial as intended. A pull-up bar is needed for one exercise, though this added bit of equipment isn't critical if the viewer is ready to just watch during the brief segment that requires one. ~ Elizabeth Smith, All Movie Guide

Granting the last request of a dying soldier, Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) delivers the dead man's sword to his widow, Janista (Marisa Wipani) and his 13-year-old son Titus (Peter Milachi). Alas, it appears as though the sword is going to be put to bad use: Titus has fallen completely under the spell of the war god Ares. In his efforts to save the boy from himself, Hercules forges a close relationship with Atalanta (Cory Everson), a woman who is almost as strong and twice as resourceful as he. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
