Saw Troy yesterday...it was good not great...i'd give it 7/10....the action scenes were descent...the story is good...but the dialogue kinda got cheesy and there was some chemistry lacking between the characters....esp. between Paris (Orlando) and Helen (what's her name).....I think Orlando was so wrong for this role...altho his character is a sissy....but I think Orlando is just so gurly and actually not that good an actor...I find his voice remains at the same pitch and tone....it did looked like he buffed up for the role...but nowhere near the lenghts of his counter-parts (The Pitt and Eric Bana)....but even this new found muscle doesn't work for him....I couldn't help but laugh when he spoke sometimes...and the lines weren't even funny...maybe it was just me....bah.....as for Helen...I'm sorry she's not that good looking...she's not ugly but nowhere near as beautiful as Helen of Troy is suppose to be.....oh well...To sum this movie up it was awhole lot of man...where the hot women at :'(....Pitt, Bana and even gurly boy Bloom.....Bana (Hector) prolly gave the best performance in the movie....he really bulked up for the movie....it was really impressive...I didn't think he could give a good performance...but he showed me...I actually cared for his character unlike the rest...I didn't connect or feel any sorta emotion for/towards them and I think that's really important to have in a movie....The Pitt he was descent...I found his character kinda like a sideshow tho not the main character...he was kinda mechanical and I didn't believe him in the bad boy of Greece role...his fight scenes were impressive and I think he did most of his own stunts... he really bulked up for this movie as well...and I respect actors that can radically change their bodies for movies...I can see all 3 leading male roles put sometime in at the gym....props to them....so all in all Troy is a good story....good action...but poor chemistry and some poor acting...but still worth seeing...

So yeah I gotta find Brad Pitt's workout plan...cuz seriously he got really jacked for this movie...I would love to be even half of that.....so my new goal at the gym is to look like the Pitt....well just my body....face wise I top him..yeah right...lol....but i'm more determined then ever....I've been putting in my time at the gym and kickboxing and i'm sorta noticing results....so I think I could do it!...I know I can do it!.....
