So what does everyone think of Troy

Beckham is correct but I can also say that there are distinct accents to people from Boston, New York/New Jersey, and the South.  

I agree that the movie could have been better.  I am looking forward to the release of "Alexander".  It will be interesting to see how accurate and well made this movie is compared to Troy.

it is a pity that they did not do justice to one of the greatest literary works ever created

eh?

Why should they be doing justice to JRR Tolkien's Trilogy

Tolkien's trilogy is not the only great literary work out there  

[savage727]

Sacrilege I say!!

Sorry I have to side with the savage here   there's "literary genius" like Tolkien, and Austen and Gaskell.

Then there's clever literature, like JK Rowling, and Shakespeare and classical literature like Homer and Virgil.

Then there's pap - Aristophanes,  - what a waste of good paper that is!

Hee hee hee hee hee - I can see I will set off a spark here - anyway the Iliad is poetry so we ought to leave that out really!

I think you may have opened a scary can of worms here

finally saw the film today, it was amazing except for orlando blooms acting but o well..Brad Pitt made up for it   I actually thought his acting and character was one of the best

Sorry Ben, have to disagree with you there... Brad Pitt in my opinion was the worst actor there, I thought his acting was very wooden. I mean that death scene? I think the reason why alot of people thought OB was bad was because his role was of such an unlikeable charcter - if you consider it, he played the cowardly womaniser quite well. But Eric Bana and Sean Bean stole the movie for me - fantastic acting by them both

Oh and nice biceps by the way
