Mythological Inaccuracies... - Spoilers

Rating: 6/10 (17 May 2004)

If some one could please tell Hollywood of the numerous mythological inaccuracies that exist in this film. Three of the wildest ones are that Achilles dies before the making of the Trojan horse, second the war lasted 10 whole years and not 3 weeks as the films presents and third there was no presentation and intervention from the Gods who play a large role in Iliad.
I know they named it Troy and not Iliad to save their behinds from the booing,but i still believe that some things should be left unaltered. Nevertheless as an action movie it was very good and the acting was magnificent,especially Peter O'Toole and Brad Pit were very convincing. Overall,maybe the best movie of 2004.(Despite the inaccuracies)
