Finally watched my "Troy" DVD tonight. They could easily have cut about a half hour from this movie and it would have been much better. Brad Pitt and Eric Bana were both great in this film, Pitt especially. Orlando Bloom and the girl that played Helen just slowed the movie down though. Peter O'Toole has had so much plastic surgery he has a look of perpetual shock on his face now and was almost unrecognizable. Now he just looks like a guy that looks like Peter O'Toole. Anyway, the action scenes were good, but not as impressive as "Braveheart", "Gladiator", "The Patriot" or any of the "Lord of the Rings" films. The CGI ships looked really fake too. Plus, not one actor in the whole film looked Greek to me.

D- or 5/10
