Troy

Pros: Most of the cast (especially Eric Bana), script, SFX

Cons: Slightly too long, weak performances by Bloom and Bean

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 ...

Pros: Story, Direction, Acting, Photography, Score

Cons: Doesn't follow the book exactly. Is that a con?

The Bottom Line: A well done adaptation of a very complex story. See Troy!

Review: "War is where old men do the talking and young men do the dying." Odysseus 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 ...

Pros: Some great acting, awesome special effects and good character development!

Cons: Maybe too long for some but not me.

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) Brad Pitt ...

Pros: Lots of action, great acting, will probably appeal to men and women

Cons: it's almost three hours long

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 ...

Pros: Story, acting, and the music.

Cons: Be prepared for a nearly-3-hour sitting enduro.

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, ...

Pros: Good, classic war movie; nice eye candy for both genders

Cons: Strays from the original story

The Bottom Line: Troy gives a classic tale new life, and does so in a thoroughly entertaining way.

Review: Troy (the movie) in 300 words or less( should be read in a Robin Williams' voice): Achilles (Brad Pitt) is the greatest warrior in all the land. Greek King (Brian Cox) fights Greek Prince, summons Achilles. Nude ...

Pros: I loved it

Cons: And you haven’t seen it

The Bottom Line: So, hey... give it a go.

Review: I didn’t go see Van Helsing two weeks ago. Let’s say I couldn’t find the time. I knew, however, that there was absolutely no way I would skip this one. The trailers looked promising to deliver on an epic scale, Brad Pitt looked ...

Pros: Action, Fantastic

Cons: Nothing

The Bottom Line: i loved this movie!

Review: Hello dear Community I am a tall fan of Greek mythology there, how one recognize by my name here perhaps also can, of course I didn't miss Troja. Because of this I would like to report about the current movie Troja today. I wish you a lot of fun ...

Pros: Fantastic! Worth the money to see more than once.

Cons: Nothing.

The Bottom Line: One to see on the big screen. One of the year's best.

Review: Movies these days are won or lost on the hype that precedes them. Not only that, but after those expectations are developed, the film maker must follow through for that movie to have any staying power which results in it’s making any money at the box ...

Pros: Men

Cons: Men

The Bottom Line: This movie has inspired me to study more Greek mythology. I look forward to learning more about these characters and those who were left out.

Review: God help me, I love men. I can't help it. I just came from the movie "Troy." As a feminist, I was offended by almost everything in that film. But as a woman...oh my! Let's start with Helen of Troy. Poor thing couldn't help herself. Married to one ...
