Wow, that was one underrated movie

Rating: 10/10 (1 January 2005)

I usually trust most critics when it comes to epic movies since it's not one of those genres like comedy that would be described by most of them as "low intelligence art". Brad Pitt was truly excellent, all actors were truly excellent. Got some points of Homer's Illiad quite well, of course it couldn't include everything and hey, they were honest to say it was 'inspired' by Homer's "Illiad" not even based which would be OK. And anyway I'm from Greece and here we are taught Homer from Junior high school but not in any way does a comparison with the original poem makes the movie any worse or any better. The only way actually to make a book or a poem like that into a movie is to make it a series of many, many hours.
Thumbs up, that was a 9/10 movie no doubt about it.
