There's plenty to enjoy about this movie; from Paris realising that he's unintentionally started a war by stealing Helen for his own, to the Greek gift horse that brings about Troy's destruction.
With a great cast of seasoned actors as well as some that were just starting out; this is a historical adventure on an epic scale.
Orlando Bloom gets the 'lover not a fighter' persona of Paris just right and Eric Bana gives Hector a heroic air as he tries to honour both his family and his country.
Brian Cox is deliciously menacing as the power hungry Agamemnon, whilst Brad Pitt gives Achilles a surly attitude as the soldier fighting for a king he despises and Rose Byrne and Diane Kruger both give beautiful performances as the women caught amongst the chaos!
Amazing battle scenes and a moving score by James Horner help to make the story of Troy an adventure that deserves to be appreciated!
