Exciting!!!

Rating: Null/10 (15 May 2004)

Very good adaptation of the Iliad by Homer. I was very impressed with the battle scenes and the cast. It was funny how many of these actors already worked with each other in other films. For example, Eric Bana and Orlando Bloom were in Black Hawk Down, and Sean Bean and Orlando Bloom were in The Fellowship Of The Ring. I couldn't help but notice how Orlando Bloom used a bow and arrow the exact same way as in LOTR. My only complaint about the film was that some of the actors not mentioned above overacted way too much. That aside, the special effects were fantastic, and the direction was very good. Go see it at any price, you won't be disappointed. I give it a 7 out of 10.
