I saw this movie in 2004. So why write a review now, in 2018 you might ask? Well, because I suddenly realized that I was thinking in awe about this movie again, as I have done many times in the past. The sheer joy I feel, the adoration, the memory of experiencing the perfection of ... well, Brat Pitt. And no, I'm not in love with him that wouldn't be related to the movie. No, it is THIS movie and the performance he gives in this movie. The picture that is portrayed of the demi-God Achilles will always stay with me and I have to thanks Brat Pitt for doing that. What has stayed with me all those years are especially the fight scenes; the WAY he fights. The fact that he is so good at it that... well, no spoilers. I've always considered the requirements for a 10/10 to be: Everything has to be perfect: the story, the music, the special effects, the main character, hell - my requirements for a 10 has been that I need to fall in love with the main character, buy posters of the movie and go see it three times in a theatre; and I don't remember any of that... but if a movie manages it to make think about with strong emotions of thrill, still yearning for that same experience again as if it was a drug that I got addicted to after a single use FOURTEENS YEARS after I saw it... then it deserves a 10 too. Cheers Brat, you made it to my short list of "immortal" people.

Grand movie based on the Epic "Iliad"! The extended version is the one to see! Fantasy is quite subtle and toned down in this, there are no gods, but there are brutal battles and Achilleus is (almost)unstoppable! In terms of realism it's somewhere between Gladiator and 300. Diane Kruger makes a lovely Helen of Troy!

A lot to like about this film. It has epic scope, great sets and costumes, and masterful fight scenes. And yet...I stopped caring toward the end. It was all fight, fight, fight; no hmmm. The Trojans got to Greece, and that's where the entire movie plays out. Would've been much better with some more ocean scenes. It wasn't a short movie either, so it could have developed some better sub-plots. The female characters had virtually nothing to do; Brad Pitt's biceps got more screen time than all the ladiers put together.Recommended only for those who love fight scenes.
