I have to laugh when I hear someone complain about the fact that the costumes are not "historically accurate." This is a tale of Herecles, for gods sake. No one was there! They could have all been naked.
The dialog is certainly misogynistic. It was pretty pitiful writing, but they made more than one dig about women. Apparently, like doctors introducing porn to make it seem legitimate, they feel using these tired clichés serve a greater purpose.
Anthony Quinn played Herecles' father, Zeus, and was the most interesting character in the movie.
Herecles managed to have an imaginative response to the women as they sought to rape and pillage.
