Not really that good

Rating: 1/10 (15 June 2006)

Bad film, for many reasons. If you are desperate housewife or something you'd probably enjoy this, but then again if thats the case you probably enjoyed titantic too.
This really made no sense as an adaptation of Homer. Some of the battle scenes were good, and accurate, especially with the spear through the eye and all, but other than that: -The greeks were bi, all of them, they thought of sexuality different back then, and nudity wasn't gratitutious like it is here.
-they didn't talk about 'making your name known for the ages' and all that crap that they constantly mention throughout the film. Talk like that is absent from Homer. This totally gives the wrong idea of how they were.
-Women in Homer barely had any lines whatsoever. You could defintly argue that women in Homer's day were oppresed by men. ALL female charters in Homer were absolutely one-dimensional and only made appearances to weep and cry for their men.
A good movie can be made that differs from Homer in the ways I just described. However, this movie isn't it.
