Homer who? Maybe Homer J Simpson, surely not the blind Homer!

Rating: 4/10 (29 May 2004)

Let's do me a favor: got o a library, and buy the Iliade by Omero, and then come back to a theatre and see this movie again. Exactly, nothing but the names! Helen survives and escapes Troy? Legol...ehm... Parides, a complete idiot? Achilles is Mortal? Where are the Gods! And Mr. Petersen, first hour of the film is nothing but a Vogue Cover, with Achilles or Helen with the wind through the hair.. my God! Do you know that Achille sand Patroclus were lovers? Not cousin! My God, it looks like an episode from Simpson's McBain "You killed my cousin!"
A Great movie, if you want to see "Vogue meets The Lord of the Ring", but if you want The Iliad or some Greek Epic, STAY AWAY!
