good movie

Rating: 8/10 (13 May 2004)

it's a good movie, if you can get over the fact that the original story of troy didn't happen the way it was told in the movie.And that the ten year war lasted only for a couple of weeks in the film.
But overall, great sets, great special effects, great battle scenes (esp. one on one) and the acting was OK to good. With the exception of orlando bloom who's always playing......... well ... orlando bloom, whether he's in pirates, lotr or troy.
And i didn't know that the ancient greeks spoke English with a British or an irish accent either.
So let me put it this way: the less you know about the original myth/ story, the more you will enjoy this film.
