Remake of historic battle for the fortress of Troy

Rating: 7/10 (8 May 2005)

the movie is good in terms of location of the scenes and the customography. The scenes are chosen carefully and with feeling and so are the clothes. The armour is exceptional, especially the ones for Ahiles and Hector (helmets). Other than that i'm not sure, that the script is correct, according to the history facts. The battles are far to common, with lack of everything i would say. But what i must say, what really bothered me, is any attention to the characters. Apart from Paris being a coward, Hector being a hero and an army leader and Ahiles being odd, we get to know nothing special about them. The acting is good but definitely not great, the part that totally stands out is Eric Bana in the role of Hector, in my opinion that is one of the rear things that talk in favor of the movie.
