Average blockbuster

Rating: Null/10 (23 June 2004)

Seeing the flaws in this movie is much easier than seeing anything else.
1. It was long, 2. the computer graphics werent that good, 3. & the acting was horrible. Brad Pitt was acting more like a cartoon character with his silly facial expressions, & his accent was terrible. In my opinion an actor's looks shouldnt matter as much as his/her performance this applies to both Pitt & Kruger who i think were the main causes for the negative reviews. Another thing I found the plot very weak. Paris & Hellen didnt look really "in love" i.e. (from the movie point of view) no reason for war, why Priam kept Helen, why Achilles was fighting, why did anyone in the movie bother to do anything? So for such a long movie it could've been "related" to the original Illiad. 4. Another thing that really annoyed me what kind of idiots does Peterson thinks us? the whole war, gathering armies, going to Troy takes one year. PLEASE!
Did i like this movie? yeah well i didn't "hate" it there are really great talents Eric Bana, Peter O'Toole, Saffron Burrows (perfect acting), and Rose Byrne.. the battle scenes are nice... It's an O.K. movie but if u miss it ur not missing anything
