How unfortunate that the only good guy in the film was killed, humiliated and had his city ravaged.

yeah and he's called Achilles and his Weak spot is ... get this HIS ACHILLES HEEL..
I STOOD UP did a 360 and walked out of the cinema
It’s almost as if the Iliad isn’t a happy story. It’s almost like it’s a story about all our total war
i'm stupid and don't read books, so i didnt know
All because of Whore of Troy, Helen
No, Agamemnon was going to go to war with Troy anyways. Helen was just an excuse
I don't understand how Brad Pitt, despite being an average-bad actor, always seems fine in the lead roles in such movies without it being too noticeable. He got outshined hard in this by Eric Bana, Brian Cox and Sean Bean.
>No, Agamemnon was going to go to war with Troy anyways. Helen was just an excuse
The movie? Or the myth?
Briseis sees almost everyone that she loved get killed and her city sacked.
> NooooOOOO not my Achillerinooooooo
It's kino.
O'Toole too
Both. Agamemnon was a tyrant that wanted absolute power
Ah, no wonder he got cucked to death
Same narrative in 300
King Xerxes is an ancient enemy of Hollywoodites
Brad Pitt is only good at playing the cool guy. I don’t know why they thought it was a good idea to cast him as Achilles, a brutal warrior who’s famous for his extreme temper
I think it was his last role.
>Most of portrayal of Achilles is one of the most brutish warrior after Ajax the Great.
>Pitt portrayal is nimble and resilient
Nice
Also strange that Hecuba and Andromache showed no resentment towards Helen
if you did a 360 you would be at the same spot bro
i watched Troy 6 times the last week ( i know because of the lack of greek kino)
I love how he speedruns it to the temple.
Nailing all quicktime events in battle.
I thought the same , Helen even holds her when Achilles gives Hector the final blow.
>playing the cool guy
burn after reading is pitts best role
the movie was too long as it is, they didn't need to make it longer
it was a popcorn flick, enjoy it for what it was
