My favorite part is when Achilles just killed the 'giant' en screams; 'Is there no one else?!' 'IS THERE NO ONE ELSE??!!!!' and everyone is like; shiiiiiiiiit :)
@MKkoev No its a great movie and I'm reading the Iliad right now and it is a great book and it is cool that Achilles is the son of a Godess and how the whole movie is a Mythical Tale
Had some of the worst dialogue and acting I've ever seen. Eric Bana and Sean Bean were the only two people in this movie that were decent. I want those 2 hours of my life back!!!!
There were no gaulo/germanics in Ancient Greece people.. get your Nazi, apeish minds out of the cookie Jar of our Mediterranean Race... Germanics and Gauls were a primitive Race and had nothing to do with beautiful exalted Hellas.. if anything, as indicated by Alexander's push into Asia.. the Ancient Hellas and Mycenean culture had much more incomun with the Near East such as Babylon and Persia... that is why Alexander went to conquer fellow civilized Races and not the extreme north or south.
@Lhein33 that makes no sense bro. The only difference of Paris not dying was that he killed Achilles in the end, which happens no matter what. Frodo dying and Sauron victorious is no where close to that. Work on your analogys big boy..
AMAZING MOVIE!!! Although, one thing that's a tiny bit wierd is that Brad Pitt was, get this, 40 when they made this movie! 40! He doesn't look 40 at all!!! Except, that actually makes it a little creepy because the girl who played Briseis was like 23 when they made the movie, so that's a little weird, but not really. FABULOUS acting on Brad Pitt and Eric Bana's parts. Great movie!
Brad is all wrong for this part. He looks like a Ken doll. And Diane Kruger as Helen? Whatever. Helen of Troy is supposed to have been the most beautiful woman who ever existed. Now, don't get me wrong, Diane is attractive, but not worthy of playing the hottest woman alive. And whatever happened to Orlando Bloom? You never even see him in anything anymore.
This movie isn't SUPPOSED to be historically accurate. There was the factual city of Troy, and then the myths and legends told about it and its history, primarily coming from Homer's Iliad, a fictional poem. This movie is based off of the latter.
Generally, completely historically accurate stories don't make for good epic blockbuster films, so enjoy the movie for its entertainment and thematic value, not its educational worth.
I don't know why people don't like this movie... it might not have been 100% historically accurate but what movie is? I mean, it's two hours of shirtless dudes with scars, ambiguous accents and cool shoes impaling each other, what's not to like? (:
@TheC yes it is a real story..and its about a war between the greeks and Troy(troy was also a greek City).It was the biggest invasion (greeks had 100.000 to 300.000 and thousands of ships).All the trojans were killed and very few greeks remained (15.000-17.000 i imagine)In addition almost all the greek Leaders died during or after the war.But the movie is not so accurate (menelaus was a handsome respected leader,Hector DID know that was killing patroclus etc)This war was a disaster..ah women :)
@aperantos13 I agree with you, but why not to see the option of Euripidi ?? We have all been taugh about this great person and about his play for ''tragodies'' so, you maybe now that his view about the topic is different. All previous great p[ersonalities showed Kings as powerful people who do not have the ''bad'' emotions and sentimental conditions that common people do have. For example, Esxilos wants Menelaos to be very strong in his soul, in other words not to have common feeling.
@redhotstaff So to continue, Many others showed Eleni as the only guilty for such a war! Now, according to Euripidis and others myths: Menelaos in his masterpiece is like others humans, in a scene he falls down and cry, he feels the fear, he is depressed and embarassed. What an innovation by Euripidi eh? Plus Acoording to him, once in history, Afrodite gave an apple to Menelaos and promised him to give him the most beautiful woman in the world! This woman was Eleni,
@redhotstaff So, Eleni was a victim of a conspiracy between Afrodite and Menelaos. So a woman was not the reason according to Euripidis. It was Afrodite. Plus, he supports woman and gives a completely new aspect of the war . His play was awarded and of course is a masterpiece. Greeks and the whole world should be proud of him, And those who do not know the facts and the myths please open a history book.... OH!! and the real reason why this war happened is because Greeks
@redhotstaff so its because Greeks and in particular Minoikos Civilization wanted to controll the region where troy was. They wanted to control Eu3inos Pontos,. It was a crossroad of the continents and of trade! oh and as you correctly said, Troy was Greek. Greeks who went there. Maybe has to do wiht ioniko civilization?? and ioniko ritthmo?? anyway... What a great history!!!!!!!!
What history books leave out is Helen was confronted by a Djinn before the war ever took place. And he offered her anything she wished for. And she wished every man she would meet would fall in love with her. And Bloom fell in love with her and it led to the downfall of troy. You wont find that in any history book I can guarantee it.
@frostybiitecp you dickghead you absoulate dickhead why ruin it for the ones that havent watched it. theres no point in me watching it now. lool i am very nice really xx
the only gay thing about this movie was that everyone who knew how to fight died. and the pussies like orlando bloom's character survived wtf is up with that?
@dudeyy399 its based on an old story spoken over 500 years agoo...where dieing on the battle field was seen as a form of honor n glory :/..bt yea it still kinda sucks :(
I love people who come on here and complain about how this movie was not historically accurate and all that nonsense, PEOPLE IT'S A FUCKING MOVIE! You want to learn history, you want to learn historical events that took place, etc. READ A FUCKING BOOK. Rational people don't go to movies to learn, they go to movies to be entertained. And this movie did just that, so enjoy it....THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE WITH ME :)
@laurillap I'm well aware of where the story comes from. And there is argument and claims that say the Iliad is just a story and then there is argument and claims saying that it speaks off true events, that's the whole reason why the Iliad is spoken in such high regards, people wonder did it happen or not.
@bigman6499 And personally, I didn't see this as all that inaccurate.
The events are pretty much the same, just the timeline was shortened, the gods and some of the filler was cut out, Agamemnon and Menelaus were turned into villains so audiences were more sympathetic to Helen's running away, and the fates of some characters were changed so that the "bad guys" got their dues in the end.
Really, this movie was just like any book to movie adaptation. The Illiad was just a story, not real history.
@bigman6499 You're right but in part. Noone believes that the Iliad can be adapted for cinema 100%, it's stupid. The difference between literature and cinema is big. BUT, you cannot blame some people for believing that Menelaus should have taken Helen back and Paris should've been killed. These are the pillars of the story. I don't know if you like Tolkien, but what would have been your opinion if someone made a film based on the LotR and showed Frodo dying and Sauron victorious? Think about it!
@bigman6499 The fact that this movie isn't historically accurate doesn't bother me. Few movies are actually historically accurate! But what bothers me is how schools play this movie in history classes. It's a shame how bad the educational system has gotten...
homers epic story without gods? lets be honest. woolfgang petersen is a hack! movie sucked. brad and eric were great but movie is hollywood crap. any educated man knows how this story goes and he butchered it.
One of the worst movies ever made. All the stars seem thrown into the roles together simply because of their celebrity hotness. Orlando Bloom and Diane Kruger are about the only people that actually semi-fit.
The story is historically inaccurate and the plotline is horrendous. The story switches back and forth between major characters on a whim. The lines are cheesy. All women are used as sex objects and nothing more.
Everything about this film spells out an intended epic gone bad.
@LOTRlover100 I havent seen this yet but i'm reading the iliad and Hector is by far the most honorable of all the men in the story, he's a loving husband and father who numbers among the bravest of the brave and yet he does not seek war and has no desire for carnage unlike several other characters
The film is so interesting to watch a second and third time because you're able to notice small details in the actors' performances. It might seem like a mediocre film, but watch it again and you'll change your mind.
the audio is kida off dude near the end still the movie was good i give it 7.5out 10 because the movie had a couple flaws but any tahnks for putting this up
Pitt was not engaging as Achilles. He delivered an Average performance In my opinion. Eric Bana should have gotten more screen time. Bana and O'Toole carried the film.
I'm Greek and my middle name is Achilles. They pronounce the name wrong in this movie tho. It's not A-kill-ees. It's Ack-e-lees.

@LOTRlover100 I havent seen this yet but i'm reading the iliad and Hector is by far the most honorable of all the men in the story, he's a loving husband and father who numbers among the bravest of the brave and yet he does not seek war and has no desire for carnage unlike several other characters
yeah Hector is the best

The film is so interesting to watch a second and third time because you're able to notice small details in the actors' performances. It might seem like a mediocre film, but watch it again and you'll change your mind.

Pitt was not engaging as Achilles. He delivered an Average performance In my opinion. Eric Bana should have gotten more screen time. Bana and O'Toole carried the film.
