zzzzzzzzzzzz...well, at least Brad is Buff

Rating: 4/10 (1 June 2004)

Wow. There were only 2 things that kept me from falling asleep during this movie -- the most important was trying not to embarrass my friends who dragged me to see this and the other was a few shots of a nearly naked, buff Brad Pitt. Really. That's it. I know the purpose of these movies are the big, spectacular battle scenes, but come on -- the acting was TERRIBLE. There were WAY too many soap opera moments. The deliveries were positively wooden. And if someone said to Achilles "You do this so your name with live forever" ONE MORE TIME, I was going to throw my bucket o' popcorn at the screen. And, Hollywood, PLEASE would you give the women in these movies more to do than look young, hot, and sadly off into the distance. Gag me.
