A true epic film, with exceptional acting and special effects.

Rating: 10/10 (14 July 2004)

I thought Troy was an absolutely great movie, and I just hope Brad Pitt will be noted for his acting ability. Just because he is so beautiful, he is neglected in Oscar nominations. I think his acting deserves a nomination. I read some criticisms of the computer generated special effects, but I thought they were very real, and as one of the very few people who did not like "Lord of the Rings", this was a good story, and I cared about the characters. All the actors were special. I don't care if it exactly follows Homer. It was entertaining and kept you on the edge of your seat. The fighting scene between Brad Pitt and Eric Bana was like a ballet.
