brad pitt is awesome, 2 June 2004
Author: courtjes from pennsylvania

Brad Pitt is awesome as Achilles. He shows he can act with the best, such as Peter O'Toole. The movie itself moves at a good pace, Helen is beautiful and stunning but her character never develops. Orlando Bloom's character is a true wimp, but Orlando plays the part well. Great movie! The battle scenes do get a little repetitive, Hector's character also played well, top notch. The musical score is fine. Has to be seen on the big screen. Location shots worked well.
