Wow, people other than me actually like this film. :-o Wonders will never cease.

From what I remember of this film (and that's not a lot as I saw it on Halloween 2004 when I was *dying* from a cold) I seemed to enjoy it. I was actually pleasantly surprised at Brad Pitt (the first and only time I have ever seen him in anything) as I thought he was quite good, whereas most critics thought he should be burnt as firewood as he was so wooden.

I seem to remember thinking Orlando Bloom wasn't much to write home about, but then again I think he was once more the victim of a character that was written to be handsome and not much else.

Eric Bana was really good as Hector, and Peter O'Toole is worthy of a mention.

I can't remember much about the battle scenes and things like that, but it was an entertaining way to pass two hours, lying on the couch, and eating a toffee apple. It certainly didn't deserve the mauling it got from critics.

I really need to see it again actually. And the fact I have just learnt, that Josh Groban sang the credits song, is another reason why I should. :D

lol ya, i need to see it again...like you i don;t really remember it. to me. but ya, i want to read the Illiad by Homer and read the real story what happened. Just for a historical backround! But ya, i want to be a movie critic so i can give movies the credit they deserve! now that i see some of my opinions are the same as others!
The what really surprised me was Helen..i forgot the actress's name. But when my friends pointed out that she was the girl from National Treasure i was like, really? sweet! but then when she got to kiss OB...ya..but she's really pretty and she played the part well!!

Yeah, I'm guessing it didn't follow the story that accurately, but then again, they never really do.

Yes, she was much better in National Treasure actually than this. All she had to do in Troy was look pretty and smooch OB. :eyeroll:

UGH! that's probably one of the many reasons she joined the crew of Troy...money, being able to kiss OB, and becoming more famous..probably many others

Hehe, well I doubt that was the main reason, but it certainly didn't harm her career.

I personally would rather kiss Nicholas Cage if I had the choice. :happy:

Hmm, I'm not sure about him. I don't remember enough really. :D

You're all making me want to watch it again. But luckily we own it, so I have no excuse not to.

Hehe.

Am I dreaming, or have they released an extended version of this, which makes it (to the people who hated it) slightly more tolerable?

Ah, right. It seems to be the trend with big historical epics, that critics hated, for them to bring out extended versions, so people won't hate them as much. :P

Apparently it improves it quite a lot. Wonder when it is coming out?

Yeah, they call them Director's Cuts nowadays. Sounds better than extended. :P

Anyone know what the song at the end of the credits is called? I'll have to see if I can download it.
