This was an amazing peice of art. Seriously the movie was great, and comparing it to other similar movies (i.E gladiator) it was the best. a MUST see in the theatres!!!.

I love Brad Pitt! Troy? The movie sucked!! The music sounded like music from a children`s symphony. This movie was more about Brad Pitt than the whole story of the Trojan war itself. It really should have been called "Achilles"... since it`s more of a movie about good looking people than actually being a really good movie. Don`t go see this movie with high expectations, you`ll ruin the film for yourself.

Troy was an abismal waste of time and money. What a sad star vehicle. I don`t understand why the Trojan`s were set up as the protagonists, who wants to see the good guys die? What a stupid perspective to tell the story from. I guess when you are banking on Brad to sell the sexy bad boy image you can sacrafice the story you are telling. 270 million dollars that could have made 10 better films.

I don`t see all the hype over Orlando Bloom - he looks like a little boy. Eric Bana gave an amazing performance and every man should aspire to have forearms like Brad Pitts. Peter O`Toole was excellent. Good movie

Pitt was awesome and Bana played an incredible character. Excellent movie, a definite must see!

I thought Troy was a fantastic movie! The action was superior and the actors did a great job. I think what made it better was people my age liking Orlando Bloom and Brad Pitt, and then showing them like butt naked, was great! Brad Pitt did a great job, and the story line was good. I love Orlando Bloom!

I have to say that I really enjoyed this movie. It is the first movie that I have seen in a long time that I would be more than willing to see again while it`s still in theatres. As for the deviations from Homer`s Iliad, I thought that they worked well. We must remember that although there is some truth in the story of Troy, most of everything else is a myth, so I think that taking liberties in changing certain facets of Homer`s original story is more than acceptable The movie is INSPIRED by the Iliad, which basically allows for as much creative freedom as possible.

The movie should have been called Achilles! The most dissapointing aspect of the movie was the inaccuracies toward the Iliad. I was shocked as there was no resolution involving the two ppl who started the war...the fighting was good though

After reading some of the comments, that I have found to be funny, stupid, and excellent...I`ll add my own 2 cents worth... 1)If you are a strict christian, and don`t belive in fighting, why the heck would you go to a movie about war!!!! 2)Ditto`s to the "It`s entertainment" comment. 3)Ditto`s to "Greek Mythology".....think ya hit the nail on the head with that one...it is Myth.....the same thing happened to the movie Titanic....people thought it was supposed to be a history movie about the sinking,.....WRONG.....it was a *Love Story* set on the Titanic. In the end I thought Troy was a fantastic movie and will be seeing it again and again

Rather than an epic story, Troy turned out to be an epic waste of money and time. The music is not inspiring, the characters are hollow and the battles epitomized by the first battle scene... quick and anticlimactic. Don`t go watch this movie cause our resources could be better spent elsewhere.
