Good, but could be better

Rating: Null/10 (15 May 2004)

I saw this interesting film. It's cool and I enjoyed it, but I Found this little problems: 1.-Battle scenes are a little bit chaotic. 2.-The music has too much presence, it`s repetitive and it remembers me a lot of other scores.It`s not as good as should be in this kind of films, with all this money. 3.-Some things of the original poem that have been changed, alter the meaning of facts or characters´leit motives. And these changes are in the bad way, like I will explain at 5.- 4.-Brad Pitt is not as good actor to interpret such a difficult character.He doesn't find the gravity point of Achilles Bana,Bean,Bloom...are better than him in their roles. 5.-We can suppose that this is a Greek Tragedy,so, it's a pity that the film makers`mercy has altered the original story. I suppose that a film where all the main characters die, it´s a too much for some audience, that think that a movie has to have a moderately Happy end. A Greek Tragedy never has a happy end.The adventure, the honor always has a prize.Always. Achilles, for example, was a Butcher with no mercy, that profaned Hector's body. And he was very proud about it, he never showed repentance. And died cause his violent way of revenge annoyed gods.His memory is in books now,but How?
