Troy was a breath-taking film with a brilliant plot (admittedly based on a legend), amazing characters and some amazing special effects.
Story
The story was well written and believable, however, it is based on a historical legend and is not the work of the makers of the film, so while I liked it, I can't give anybody credit for it. The story was also refreshing in that the good guys lost, which is original.
4/5
Characters/ performances
This film had an amazing set of characters portrayed by some truly gifted actors such as Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom. There was a nice mix of brave, selfless heroes and some twisted villains. However, the film also impressed me in that it didn't see characters in black and white as many films do and there was good within evil and evil within good. There was also something to look ...

Review of ?Troy? 2 Disc Special Edition DVD
The DVD
I am reviewing the 2 disc special edition of the DVD. The movie was produced in 2004 by Warner Bros. Pictures. The movie received mediocre praise from the critics for the retelling of Homer's ?The Iliad?. The storyline is fairly loosely based on The Iliad, and Hollywood has used it's artist license to add to the tale.
The Special Edition consists of the 2 discs, one being the actual movie and the other a very interesting mixture of special effect techniques used in the production, an analysis of the battle scenes, a 3D animated guide to Greek myths and a look at the design of the sets used and the comparisons between Greek temples and ruins of the time.

INTRODUCTION
2004 was a curiously strong year for historical epics. With King Arthur, Troy and Alexander appearing within months of each other there was no lack of enthusiams for fans of this genre, although others may question these big budget conglamorations as being nothing more than the producers wish to ride the post-Lord of the Rings wave. As it was, none of these modern epics managed to pull through the consciousness of the audiences the way The Lord of the Rings did and either were lambasted by all or quietly faded away from memory. In that latter group is Wolfgang Petersen's Troy, the epic retelling of the fall of Troy, with the ever marketable Brad Pitt as Achilles and the equally charming Orlando Bloom of LOTR fame as Paris, with Diane Kruger as their love interest Helen and Eric Bana as Hector. With the usual CGI effects ...
