Basic Review with a lot about Achilles

Rating: Null/10 (1 June 2004)

***Possible spoilers ahead*** I went and saw Troy just yesterday and I must be frank I was actually not really into going to see it as much as a couple of other movies but when it started I liked it a lot. The moment I really really got into the movie was when Achilles was fighting and just how Brad Pitt played him. Honestly I haven't seen many of Brad Pitt's movies or liked him that much in the movies except for Mickey in Snatch and J.D. in Thelma & Louise, but when I saw him as Achilles it completely got me entranced in Troy. He was amazing as Achilles and brought amazing acting to them movie. The fight scenes were a little gory but well done and the romance was very well put in to the movie. Orlando Bloom, Eric Bana, and a number of the other actors and actresses that were in the movie were great in the acting. For instance the king of Greece and the king of Troy as well as the princesses of Troy including Helen and the cousin of Paris and Hector. I definitely recommend going to see it. Achilles is definitely my favorite character in the movie.
