The face that launched a thousand franchises
TROY- Where to begin? in the end credits it claims that this film is based on Homer's The Iliad, it is based on the Iliad, in the same way that the omen is based on the Bible (i.e. the resemblance is patchy at best). All of the reference to God's and mythology is removed and the film becomes completely secular, which ruins the story cos there is no depiction of achilles as an immortal, and the story of the gods starting the war is left out entirely, still whats left makes for a good flick unlike Van Helsing, the action is still highly enjoyable and creates a nice spectacle, though i did get bored of Achilles signature move, i advise all to watch without delay, a sound film. todays T-shirt slogan: Hello! i'm lost and i can't find my Beer! Todays music: AC-DC, Hells Bells # posted by The Prisoner | 7:17 AM | |
