An early directorial effort by Sergio Leone who'd score success with his spaghetti westerns later, The Colossus of Rhodes is a splashy robust adventure story about swashbuckling strongmen battling evildoers against one hell of a backdrop, the gigantic statue that ended up lost in an earthquake. Rory Calhoun is competent as the hero. The cast likewise is fine but they lack the larger-than-life personas of Hollywood counterparts often seen in sword-and-sandal epics like this. It's entertaining but could have packed a bigger punch given the title.
