A TASTE OF GREAT THINGS TO COME, 3 January 2000
8/10
Author: ALAN MOUNT from CARDIFF, WALES

This,the very first of the TV movies that led to the wonderful but now sadly departed action/adventure series is far from the best but it does include the first appearance of Herc's companion in arms Iolaus played by the brilliant Michael Hurst who with Kevin Sorbo created the greatest twosome in genre television history.Anthony Quinn who was presumably cast to add gravitas to the project is overshadowed by these two men whose partnership takes off from the get go.Also cast is Xena in waiting Lucy Lawless as one of the more aggressive of the Amazons and she gives just enough to the role to hint at the glories to come when she headed her own show.The action quotient here is less than you would get in the average 44 minute episode of the TV show but there is enough to make this an enjoyable fantasy adventure and to see the makings of what would eventually become the action show that all to follow would have to be measured against.
