Anyone else think it's an over rated movie?

I mean they totally changed a few things around. I mean Patroclus was not Achilles' cousin. I know they tried to go for a story line that didn't involve homosexuality. But that was the way their culture was at the time.  It seemed like it was only made popular at the time because women enjoyed seeing Bradd Pitt's buttocks.

Helen was the only good part of that movie.


She was pretty HNNNNNNG. Seems like most historical movies are boring except for the girl.

Personally I'm a fan of the 1960's Spartacus, I kind of heckle these more modern movies.

It had Brian Cox in it, which automatically elevates it to at least a B+ regardless of other shortcomings.

Throughout the film, whenever Hector, Paris, Achilles, and Menelaus all draw their swords, metal scraping can be heard as they are pulled from their shields. However, the interior of the shields are lined with cloth, and the loops that hold the swords are leather, not metal.

Moved from the General Discussion just in case this really was a thread created to talk about the movie and not an attempt to disrupt the site by posting a thread with a provocative title.

Could be the metal in the sheath............It's too bad the movie couldn't have been a little more accurate to the book, and  had some of the stuff left out added in
