An epic disappointment

Date of Review:  May 15, 2004
The Bottom Line: It's certainly not a bad film, but it's not even close to greatness. Possibly the years biggest disappointment.
Review: Today was something of a fairly big day for me. It was that day; the day when I acquired a ticket to see the film that was sure to be the film of the year. Over the last 3 years that role has been taken up by a certain fantasy trilogy that I'm sure...

It's Big! It's Dramatic! Brad Gets Naked!

Date of Review:  May 16, 2004
The Bottom Line: I liked it. So there.
Review: When I made my movie list out for what I would see this summer, I wasn't sure if Troy was one that I would see in the theater.

Normally, I'm a fan of period dramas but after seeing Cold Mountain and The Last Samurai (and being disappointed...

Beefcake and buttcheeks: Troy

Date of Review:  May 13, 2004
The Bottom Line: A disappointment on many different levels.
Review: There will be two sorts of viewers for Wolfgang Petersen's Troy. Some will see it because they know and love Homer's epic tale, with all its majesty, subtlety and endless capacity to refract new aspects of itself through fresh retellings. These...

If At First You Don't Succeed, Troy Troy Again

Date of Review:  May 16, 2004
The Bottom Line: For honor.
Review: Greatest year of the decade? 2004's getting there fast. Latest reason for this is Troy, a movie that I was so ready to come in here and trash to Hades. Then it turns out to be yet another link in this impossibly long chain of great movies. Somehow I...

An Epic Tale Deserves an Epic Movie ~ Troy Delivers

Date of Review:  May 12, 2004
The Bottom Line: something for chicks and adventure movie lovers - see it!
Review: Helen of Troy, she of the face that launched a thousand ships, has company in Wolfgang Petersen's Troy. Brad Pitt, who I always considered to be a little too much of a "pretty-boy", is growing up, getting older, maturing, and it looks good on him...

Troy: With All Things Immoderation

Date of Review:  May 19, 2004
The Bottom Line: Not good but not exceptionally bad, Troy is simply disappointing.
Review: Unapologetic and base about its Hollywood ideas of flesh idolization, Wolfgang Petersen's Troy takes expensive missteps with an old hat yarn of raw masculinity and barbarism by stripping itself of the requisite prurience and gore, opting for the...

The Anger of Achilles: Troy

Date of Review:  May 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: A well done adaptation of a very complex story. See Troy!

I watched Troy at its opening today at the AMC Stonecrest 16 in Lithonia, Georgia. As some of my long-time readers are aware, I am a great fan of history and...

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)

Troy summed up in five words: Paris is a damn fool!

Date of Review:  May 20, 2004
The Bottom Line: There was no Roman God named Fartacus. Bart Simpson
Review: For anyone who doesn't know, Troy is loosely based on Homer's (not Simpson) The Iliad. I will admit up front, if you have any knowledge of Greek mythology, it will probably come in handy while watching this movie. Before I actually get into the...
