I just had to write a comment on this film after i read some other comments!

Rating: 10/10 (22 August 2008)

I watched this movie the first day it came to cinema.I expected it will be great...and i got what i expected.I just cant listen people who say that this is a bad movie only because its not made correctly by the Iliad and because its not epic enough.I mean come on people!What did you expect.Its not Ben hour or the gladiator but its a great half action half epic movie.I think that we should see more of this kind of movies.Its epic on its own personal way,not like Ben hour,gladiator,brave-heart,Spartacus,el Cid...Its epic like Troy.There is a lot of epic in this movie the only problem is that people think that what makes epic movie is that you have to cry enough tears to make an ocean at the end of the film.Well i gotta a news for those people...its not.An the fact that this film is not made correctly by the Iliad don't makes him worse.It only shows the vision of how would it be if it was of a person who wrote it.And by the way Braveheart had some historically inaccurately things in it but he turned out to be a great film.Troy has a million elements of what makes a good movie.Like for examples:
1.Brad Pitt was great as Achilees.
2.Eric Bana was as good as it gets.
3.Peter O'Toole was great.
4.Direction was pretty good.
5.Production was perfect.
6.Visual effects were great.
7.Sound effects were great.
8.Battle choreography was one of the best in history of film making.
9.Dialog was magnificent.
10.Relationship between a king who needs a warrior which he hates and opposite is great.
There are so many things in this film that are great which some people refuse to see only because they read Iliad or god knows what.This movie is a great filled with action,epic romance that you must see. I just have to give him ten because it don't has to be Ben-Hur to be a great epic movie. If you haven't watched it,watch it an if you have watched it,watch it again.
