The Fire and the Cure
10 September 2023
While visiting his immortal friend Cheiron (Kevin Atkinson), who was accidentally wounded by Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) during a battle, all the fire in the village goes out. Hercules goes to the only place that still have fire, Hera's temple, and he learns that the evil goddess is behind the event. He stumbles with the village leader Deianeira (Tawny Kitaen), they head together to see the god of the fire Prometheus (Mark Ferguson) and they find him frozen. They learn that Hera has stolen his fire torch and if this fire goes out, mankind will be doomed to die. Zeus (Anthony Quinn) discloses to Hercules where Hera is, but advises him not to go since he may die. But Hercules proceeds his journey with Deianeira, and meets the girl Phaedra (Stephanie Barrett) in the woods, who gives wrong tips to them, delaying Hercules from his showdown with Hera.

"Hercules: The Legendary Journeys - The Circle of Fire" is another entertaining adventure of Hercules. The plot is full of action, supported by a great cast, special effects and charismatics characters. The gorgeous Tawny Kitaen, who recently left us, is the romantic pair of Kevin Sorbo and their chemistry is amazing. Anthony Quinn also steals the show, in the role of the most powerful god that fears his evil wife Hera and loves his mortal son. Looking forward to see the next Hercules films again that has not aged almost thirty years after its release. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Hércules e o Círculo de Fogo" ("Hercules and the Circle of Fire")
