Troy

"The one movie where I sort of like Brad Pitt. Not historically accurate, it was pretty obvious this was more of a "look Brad worked out for this" than anything to me. Orlando Bloom and Eric Bana are also in this. Based on Homer's "Iliad," this epic portrays the battle between the ancient kingdoms of Troy and Sparta. While visiting Spartan King Menelaus (Brendan Gleeson), Trojan prince Paris (Orlando Bloom) falls for Menelaus' wife, Helen (Diane Kruger), and takes her back to Troy. Menelaus' brother, King Agamemnon (Brian Cox), having already defeated every army in Greece, uses his brother's fury as a pretext to declare war against Troy, the last kingdom preventing his control over the Aegean Sea. I've read the Iliad many moons ago and sure watch this but I recommend reading the original story. "

"The movie itself was alright, but what really surprised me is that I've been accidentally quoting it my whole life. "That's why no one will remember your name". Such a powerful sentence. "

"I can excuse historical inaccuracies but I draw the line at Achilles being straight "

"Now here’s another that I didn’t like yet ! I can’t believe I didn’t like this one. Man this just keeps happening and happening "

"My favorite Brad Pitt movie "

"Moderate thumbs up. Not great, not bad. Good if you are in the mood for a Greek action film with attractive people."

"This is a movie where a man can be vulnerable and be a warrior at the same time"

"Almost always historically accurate but nevertheless a fantastic watch and the fighting/action scenes are absolutely perfect."

"Loved it! "

"I’m not sure this is a great movie but I like it anyway. "
