Eric Bana gives an amazing performance!

Rating: 6/10 (18 June 2004)

I am such a huge fan of Eric Bana after seeing this movie. I had only seen him in "Chopper" before this film and I was so impressed. He really stands out as being a truly talented actor. On the other hand, Brad Pitt was only mediocre. I usually like him but I didn't think he was right for the part of Achilles. He didn't make me care about the character. Orlando Bloom was good as well. Overall, I enjoyed this movie but it's very long, you really have to be in the mood for an epic. One thing that bothered me was that in the film, the Trojan War only lasted three days but according to the story I think it was more like years and decades. I think that should have been reflected.
