S*%t and Sandal.....
By Gonzo Soul from The Thoroughfare, Woodbridge , 17 May 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
This film was pathetic!! I was so disapointed in this because The Trojan war is one of the best stories ever told, yet this bored me to death with its lack of quality.
For starters, Brad Pitt's performance WAS the Pits!!! He looked like he'd been taking acting lessons from Joey in Friends. The script was diabolical, so dramatic and heavy in a cheesy Hollywood way that it sounded like it was etched on stone. The battle scenes were poorly shot and you couldnt see who was fighting who and it was very confusing. The scenes with the 1000 ships looked rushed and stank of CGI. I really could just go on & on about this film.
But what disapointed me most was the Petersen thought he could tell the story better than Homer. He shifted the emphasis from Odydesus to Achilles which made it more like a western. He left out the gods, so it became like a history and he left out key dramatic elements like the fact the war lasted for ten years. The war in this film felt like it lasted about 3 weeks!!! and this film felt like it went on for an eternity!!! Terrible!- Was this review helpful to you?

Accessible epic
By Qazwsx (2 reviews) , 24 Nov 2012Excellent film. Plot is clear and the atmosphere successfully recreated. I am told that it is not entirely historically accurate but it doesn't matter. To the average viewer this is a good combination of history, drama and action scenes (that aren't too long or noisy!).- Was this review helpful to you?
