best epic movie ever

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2013)

This is a film based on the epic poem The Iliad by Homer. It is in modern styles. And the director has wisely removed the gods and immortality in the film. The most important reason that made me to give this film 10 is the wonderful acting by brad pitt and great writing by David Benioff. The movie start with a great battle between Nestor and Agamemnon that the tow of them agree to a single combat. and Achilles of course wins and Nestor becomes one of Agamemnon's allies. Agamemnon's brother is always trying to make peace with troy till Paris younger son of Priam fall in love with Helen and stole her. And then he goes to his brother and ask him to attack to troy. Agamemnon gather all his force and attacks to troy. Achilles and his men take the beach easily. And then he meets Hector, and he won't fight him in that time. Achilles falls in love with Briseis a captive from troy. Agamemnon take her from Achilles.so Achilles won't fight for Agamemnon anymore and plan to return home Agamemnon fails to conquer troy. and his brother and thousand of his men dies. The Trojans invade the Greek army in the night and there is battle between Hector and Patroclus. And Hector thought that he is Achilles. And he kills Patroclus. After Achilles knew about this he goes to take his revenge. And there is a great battle between them. In pas 10 years I have watched this movie more than 20 times and every time I enjoy it more. especially after seen some terrible movie in this genre in few past years. Such as percy jacson. Everything in this movie is great most of it the acting.  Wolfgang Petersen has made one of his best movie. and brad pitt has showed that he can play in any role and any genres. The visual effect in movie is great.and the music is also great. The movie is almost 3hour but it is such a great movie that you won't feel tired at all.
