Great Movie

Rating: 9/10 (22 August 2008)

I think that this was a great movie. It was one of the best epic battle movies that I've seen yet second only to Lord of the Rings. The actors who played the roles in this movie were all great and experienced actors. I thought that the best actor in this movie was Brad Pitt. He played the role of a warrior very well and made it seem so real. In this movie he played the role of the almighty Achilles. Another great actor was Brian Cox as Agamemnon. He does so well playing the role of the bad guy. Another movie he was great in was "The Bourne Supremacy". Hector was also played very well in this movie. He had that brotherly feeling about him and protected his little brother Paris when he coward behind him. Hector was played by Eric Bana and Paris by Orlando Bloom. Hector was a great warrior like Achilles and a great adversary. Paris was a coward and could only shoot arrows at people. But I guess it makes sense since Troy was meant to have the greatest archers in the land. Hector was a great hand to hand warrior while Paris was a weakling. He was not just a weakling, but also a idiot. He caused this huge war which ended up killing his entire city just because he wanted a girl. If he were smart he would have sent Helen back to Sparta when Hector told him to. But he was selfish and thought only of himself.
