Best action movie so far this year

Rating: 7/10 (14 May 2004)

Despite all the early criticism i have heard from this movie, I loved it. I thought it had some of the greatest war and actions scenes in any movie. I also thought all the actors did terrific jobs of their characters. I complete disagree with people saying that Brad Pitt was miscast. I thought he was great as Achilies, however I have to admit that my favorite actor/character had to be Hector played my Eric Bana. I do have to warn people that I don't think Wolfgang Petersen meant to try to make the movie exactly like Homer's the Iliad. There a quite a few differences that i'm not going to get into. Overall I definately recommend this movie to anyone who likes ancient war movies or any war movie for that matter.
