Actually, Hermes didn't carry a wand. He carried a caduceus, which is a staff that has two snakes intertwined on it.
Caduceus' hahahahahhahahahahaha =) =]
Hermes became associated with the moon through Egyptian culture. Greeks associated Hermes with Egyptian moon god Thoth, and also a combination of Hermes and Anubis called Hermanubis.

Hermes has a staff and a wand.
Apollo desired the flute, so Hermes bartered with Apollo and received his golden wand which Hermes later used as his heralds staff. (In other versions Zeus gave Hermes his heralds staff). (cite from http://www.pantheon.org/articles/h/hermes.html)
It used to be a heralds wand; and Hermes was the god of heralds - being the herald and messenger of Zeus.
A herald's rod is also called a caduceus or Wand of Hermes. It is a winged rod with two serpents and leaves wound around it.
With his wand, he can put the waking to sleep or awaken the sleeping. For example, when Hermes put to sleep the many eyes of Argos. And then he basically bored poor Argus to death and his eyes are now the ones of the peacock.
I'm not sure about that question but no offense can you at least see the movie?
It is a magic wand.
Hermes looked like a handsome and athletic, beardless youth, or as an older bearded man. His attributes included the herald's wand, winged boots, and occasionally a winged travellers cap.
