I liked this version of the movie very much. Steve Reeves was a childhood hero of mine who in my adult life became a close friend. I believe this movie to be Steve's best acting of any of his movies including Hercules. The costumes are outstanding and Steve's female costar does an exceptional job. Steve's movie-star looks and physique didn't hurt the movie either. An inspiration for a 11 year old who made a lifetime of physical fitness as a result. I highly recommend this movie if one is willing to overlook the comparison of special effects from the time period of the early 1960s in comparison to the 2000s. Nine out of ten stars in my opinion. I wish we had more of Steve Reeves movies. However, he decided to quit acting at age 42 to keep his privacy intact. Thanks Steve we miss you.
