The Movie of the Year

Rating: 10/10 (28 May 2004)

I watched Troy twice and I'm gonna have to say that I haven't had enough. I'll probably watch it 2 more times. I am seriously Infatuated with this movie. And Brad Pitt is definitely the meaning of BEAUTIFUL. I love the time period the movie took us back to, the Trojan War, the era, the feeling and aura of the whole movie. I realized that I am not infatuated with Brad Pitt. But I am infatuated with Achilles and his love for Briseis.
There was a big commotion on how over-budgeted this movie was. Sure, it definitely was. But whatever Director Wolfgang Peterson wanted the audience to grasp thru TROY, he definitely succeeded. I feel fulfilled by the movie. No not in a sexual way. The movie fulfilled me in a deeper way that is difficult to explain in words. Its more of a inner feeling that probably only a few can share with me. I feel that the movie can tie in any theme possible if u dig deep, its definitely a timeless flick. Wolfgang Petersen is a genius. I will watch the film a couple more times just to grasp a deeper understanding on what emotions, feelings, morals, etc. my peers and I feel on the spectacular film. As I depart, I just want to state that the movie had a huge impact on me as of right now and probably years to come. I definitely think its the movie of the year. (Well, besides The Passion of Christ) As the movie stressed the honor of one's name to ring throughout the centuries, so Will TROY. Well, at least for me it will. REMEMBER TROY!
I long to live in the time of Achilles.
