Enjoyable does not always equal historical accuracy.

Date of Review:  Jun 4, 2004
The Bottom Line: I think this movie is worth seeing, because even if you don't like one thing you'll find something else to enjoy.
Review: As a huge fan of Greek mythology I knew from the start that the story itself would not be consistent with history and mythology as we know it. Hollywood isn't capable of that. What they are capable of is trying, which I thought they did a decent job...

Barenaked Laddies

Date of Review:  Jun 15, 2004
Review: If you took this film seriously, you'd be enraged at the remarkably insensitive screen adaptation of a Greek classic. However this film doesn't deserve to be taken seriously. It's just one more execution of a very successful formula: Take a story of...

Troy

Date of Review:  Sep 3, 2004
The Bottom Line: Its a historical movie. One must watch it.
Review: It was a dream come true for me to watch a mythological story like 'Troy' on the big screen. Homer's 'Illiad' fired my fancy even as a child. The vivid description of the wooden horse especially made the children go crazy years back when we didn't...

Not_a_classic, but a damn good film - and I should be in bed right now...

Date of Review:  May 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: I don't think you'll regret going to see it.
Review: I hope you all appreciate this review as I went to a midnight showing and am writing this at three in the morning – so apologies for any incoherencies there may be…

Troy is based on the Trojan Wars as chronicled in Homer's Iliad(from...

Pretty good movie

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for something to see, I would definitely suggest this movie.
Review: Story:

The movie is about the Trojan War, depicting the story mostly through the eyes of Hector, Achilles, and a few other characters. Since it is based off of an exceptional work of literature, the movie inherently has a strong plot to...

The Moose Hole - Watch the 'Troy' Legend Burn

Date of Review:  May 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: Those going into Troy looking for a heedfully based and historically tweaked adaptation of the myth are well advised to avert their eyes from this horrendous gorgon.
Review: When go to your local book store or library, what do you see? There's the Da Vinci Code, the latest Harry Potter book, quite possibly the latest thriller from Stephen King, and of course the latest crap-trap bashing the Bush administration (How many...

TROY: ?Lo, how the mighty hath fallen!?

Date of Review:  May 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: A good fit for Pitt, Sean Bean should also be seen.
Review: TROY (2004) is a fine motion picture up there on the same level as GLADIATOR, the Ridley Scott/Russell Crowe (2000) venture that won 5 Oscars and turned Crowe into a superstar.

While TROY isn't exactly the same story you find in THE ILIAD,...

TROY - Another Great Film By Wolfgang Petersen!

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2005
The Bottom Line: A great movie with a little bit of everything from war to romance.
Review: Priam: I've fought many wars in my time. Some I've fought for land, some for power, and some for glory. I suppose fighting for love makes more sense than all the rest.

Directed by Wolfgang Peterson (Das Boot & Enemy Mine)
