Good action flick

Rating: 6/10 (9 June 2004)

If you are looking for a rendition of the Iliad don't watch this movie! If you know the basic history/myth and are OK with the standard movie modifications of the books they are based on then you should like this movie. I normally do not like Brad Pitt and I could have thought of people that would have been better cast in that role but he did well enough.
The action scenes were exciting and the main characters of the iliad are all there and are killed by the right people, the biggest change is the timeframe of the war.
Give it a chance and you'll have fun.
