Human error, is how big empires fall

Rating: 3/10 (30 May 2004)

I didn't know what to expect from the movie, the trailer looked quite poor, and very Hollywood style, i still believe they seriously made too many ships.
Overall it was an alright movie, 8 out of 10. The beginning is a bit strange, well they should have narrated the parts with the map, it always has more effect, and it is true that they did not really bother about the characters' backgrounds.
The movie is like 3 hours long, but they actually compressed Homer's book relatively well, and action always happens. I would rather slam the music of the movie, since i don't know, it wasn't always appropriate. Sometimes it lacked a heroic touch to it.
Good performances, from Eric Bana, Brad Pitt in particular, Orlando Bloom was girlish :) but overall it was a fun watch.
