fat bloated overblown and mostly just incorrect..

Rating: 1/10 (10 July 2005)

never have a seen a better case of Hollywood ruining a amazing novel... First of why does everyone talk in an English dialect? I felt like the whole film i was in some sort of deserty part of Camelot. I was surprised with how terrible the acting was over all, especially with this star packed cast. It seemed everyone was trying to see who could over act the worst. and worse of all the end the film shows legolas(Orlando Bloom) killing Achilles with a bow and arrow, can we say typecast? As for historical accuracy the scriptwriter seriously raped homers corpse. I gave this film a one out of 10 because the rating system doesn't allow me to rate it any lower.This film was SERIOUSLY over rated, a waste of good special effects and Brad Pitt. If you are a fan of the illiad or any of homers works or just truly good cinema avoid this movie at all cost
