But he is not alone. The rulers of Babylon(three siblings) and the king of Assyria all want the queen. The movie has some silly fights, Hercules really needs a t-shirt, and the club is just too much. But the plot is complicated in the later part of the film with lots of conspiring and back-stabbing.The movie is dubbed from Italian to English. In Italian the movie is named "Ercole contro i tiranni di Babilonia".
