The only words I can possibly say for this movie... "It bites." Completely hollywood and fairly historically inaccurate... Why can't there ever exist a movie that follows the true storyline? Also, Agnamemnon (however it's spelled) and Menalaus were just.. ugly. I always envisioned Menalaus somewhat younger and... thinner than that. Helen was pretty though. Just about all the actresses I've seen for past Helen roles have been really pretty. Orlando Bloom makes me want to shoot him, he's not even that attractive. He does fit the cowardly part, but it just felt... so odd -.-; Oh! Eric Bana was great though XD. If anything, he and Peter O'Toole were the best parts of the film -- ok maybe Brad Pitt too -.-; The scene where Priam (O'Toole) went to go talk to Achilles (Pitt) was strange... ... but I liked O'Toole's acting at that part. I've got to say, some of the actors really did a nice job, but the storyline inaccuracy just ... turned me off. Lots of naked Brad Pitt -.-; I don't see anything much to squeal about -- then again I've never been subject to go all giddy and googly-eyed like most fangirls over celebrities =_= I liked Rose Byrn's part as Briseis. There's inaccuracy with her part as well, I believe, but still I liked her - more than Diane Kruger. Diane was just pretty. She reminded me of decoration that you kinda set in the background for a party or something - look, but not care much for. Overall... kinda... boring -.-; Anywayz, going to head to bed soon, have a jpn quiz in the morning and I need to study a bit -.-
If Eien_Yuki reads this, Happy B-day~~~ and don't work too hard tonight ^^.
