great sword and spear fighting movie.

Rating: 8/10 (3 October 2006)

Brad Pit was great in this movie, a real fighting machine. This movie gets kind of gory at times, and had some half truths plus some wrong info from Homers tail. Orlando Bloom does not really play a huge part in the movie as I thought but he would but he was alright. Not a real action hero. But watch Helan of Troy if you want a more accurate story. The weapons of the time were very accurate. Spear and shield were the main weapon of choice due to the reach it had on your opponent. The walls of Troy in this movie were spectacular. I cannot believe that they actually built that. The movie was accurate for the most part and was greatly played by the actors.
