A bit of a disappointment

Rating: 5/10 (15 February 2005)

Recently saw Troy and was perplexed at the Hollywood ever-prevailing ways of disrespectfully depicting historical events. We did not even see the dogs consume Hector or any hint of physical love between Achilles (Pitt) and his cousin, later slain by the Troyan prince.
A few years back, BBC made a documentary on the Mycenean times of Troy. War is never for love but ever for gold and greed. If the producer saw that one, maybe he would have decided to avoid making Troy all together. When will we stop making movies for the crowd and start producing movies for individuals? And they called themselves civilized back then too. Amazing If you are even remotely a fan of correct historical events, stay well clear of this flick.
5 out of 10 thanks to nice costumes and music. And Brad Pitt
