AggieDave 6 #1 May 19, 2004 Good flick, even if you have to see Brad Pitts' ass all the damn time. Its a chick flick love story with a lot of violence and graphic war scenes, so win win for both folks in the couple.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

ChasingBlueSky 0 #7 May 19, 2004 Decent flick, they removed almost all use of the gods and made Achilles into an introspective hero. In Greek mythology heros just "were" and played out their role. They've changed a few things about some of the characters, and IIRC, the Trojan Horse was actually in the Aeneid not the Odyssey. Most of Brad Pitt's character development was done by having him stand in front of the camera and showing off his body. When you realize that he has the majority of the screen time in a movie that is nearly 3 hours long, you get quite bored of that. Peter O'Toole steals the entire movie with just one scene. Eric Bana couldn't act his way out of a box and is following the Tom Cruise method of acting: stare at the camera and pretend you are constipated. I hope to never see him in a movie again. Orlando Bloom's Paris is a combination of Legolas (archer) and his love lorn ways of "Pirates." They do almost nothing with Helen the entire movie - the intorduce her and show her on screen maybe three more times._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

scottbre 0 #8 May 19, 2004 This movie was an hour too long and surprisingly dry. There was really no character in the movie that was given enough development for an audience to really care about or identify with. If your definition of a great movie is pretty people, mediocre acting, and good special effects, you should love this movie. *yawn* "Your mother's full of stupidjuice!"

CrazyIvan 0 #9 May 19, 2004 My humble opinion: Troy, is a lame and crude imitation of GLADIATOR, perhaps Troy is the gay-version of Gladiator? __________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BTW - I thought the special FX were not that great. The sets were well done, however._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me.... I WILL fly again.....

Zenister 0 #11 May 19, 2004 QuoteDecent flick, they removed almost all use of the gods and made Achilles into an introspective hero. In Greek mythology heros just "were" and played out their role. seems to be the trend in modern movie making... LOTR pretty much ignored the fact it was supposed to be a sword and sorcery flick and put waaaaaay to much time trying to 'humanize' all the characters.. a good flick, but really lacking from its source material.. Troy falls in the same category..simply beautiful, but lacking the depth and subtleties of meaning found in the original source.____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Haven't seen the movie, but I though the ancient greeks rode horses mainly and most were foot soldiers anyway. I had no idea they also rode donkeys..... ...
