Hercules was the powerful son of the God King Zeus, for this he received nothing but suffering his entire life. After twelve arduous labours and the loss of his family, this dark, world-weary soul turned his back on the Gods finding his only solace in bloody battle. Over the years he warmed to the company of six similar souls, their only bond being their love of fighting and presence of death. These men and women never question where they go to fight or why or whom, just how much they will be paid. Now the King of Thrace has hired these mercenaries to train his men to become the greatest army of all time. It is time for this bunch of lost souls to finally have their eyes opened to how far they have fallen when they must train an army to become as ruthless and blood thirsty as their reputation has become.

According to the liner notes in the CD, Director Brett Ratner was impressed by Velazquez's "The Impossible" score and brought him on board to provide the music for Hercules. I haven't seen the movie yet but the trailer's look cool. It seems like Hollywood is on a Hercules kick right now having released two films within a short period of time based off the mythological hero. The Velazquez score is largely what you'd expect to find for a film of this nature. There is plenty of epic sounding action music that thankfully is complimented with a "Hercules theme". This is good news because I really hate it when a composer slams a score with tons of action noise and doesn't even bother to give the heroes or villains any sort of musical reference. Track one starts the journey with a big bang introducing us to the major theme of the hero. We hear this again repeated in various ways throughout the score. Brass and percussion pound out the theme and upon first listening to it...it really reminded me of Brian Tyler's "Ironman 3" theme. Maybe it's just the similar instrumentation. Track 2, "Pirate Camp", really throws in a twist that took me back for a second. The composer adds a drum kit to the mix and to me it just doesn't feel right. It seems out of place when compared to what makes up the majority of the score. We hear this drum kit again in Track 17, "Dungeon & I am Hercules". The drum kit makes these cues stand out a bit too much for me.The score isn't all about the action music. Velazquez has incorporated some very nice subtle pieces that you'll be wanting more of. Tracks 5, 6, 8 are some of my favorites. Track 8, "I Will Believe in You" has some really nice choir work in it. These are shorter cues that obviously are focusing on more emotional moments in the movie. The longer tracks in the score are dedicated to what fans what to see more of anyway....the action sequences. These cues are typically 6 plus minutes. The entire score runs at 1 hour and 6 minutes. The standout tracks for me would be 22-25. I especially enjoyed the "Alternate Ending" cue and a real standout is the last track, "Choir Theme". It is a great cue that will give you goosebumps.The CD is released through the Sony music label and the book inside contains liner notes from Mark Helfrich who was the editor for the film. He provides some insight on the movie and the scoring and has some pretty interesting facts about how things came about. The book also has photos from the movie. Looking at the photos from the movie, Dwayne Johnson looks like a giant compared to everyone around him! He certainly is a great pick for Hercules.Not bad for my first Velazquez score. We've got some great action music that incorporates thematic material and we also have some very well done emotionally driven cues to slow things down a bit. I'm glad they released the alternate ending music as well as the choir theme at the end of the disc too. I just didn't care too much for the drum kit when it comes in. To me it makes the score seem a little cartoonish and out of place. I think fans of movie scores are going to like this one so I recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great soundtrack for this Hercules movie. *by C***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2016* I like collecting soundtrack albums of some of my favorite movies. This is one of them. Fernando Velazquez did a good job of composing the music for this movie. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by R***O on Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2015* how cool is that --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4573949-hercules-soundtrack](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4573949-hercules-soundtrack) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
