...a gorgeously packaged sugar water tablet, can this be called "Troy"? This should be called "Achilles and Hector"... The magic change is really too much, crazy smears Agamemnon and Menelaus, Odysseus big and small Aishao There is no sense of existence, Nestor Diomedestocross, etc., etc., do not deserve a name, as if Achilles is the only hero left in the army of the Achaeans, or a saint... This way of squeezing every character is flat, especially when you've wiped out all the elements of the gods ("Iliad": Why can't the Greek coalition win without Achilles? Because Achilles Beg his mother begging Zeus not to let the Greek coalition win without him... not just not helping, but also sabotage). And the mysterious brotherhood of Hector and Paris... Probably because Priam's fifty sons have been deleted here and only two are left... And it's a bit incomprehensible , Why did the image of Hector make such a glorious ... and, among the people who escaped from Troy, Aeneas was not given a few shots, but it made people feel that Paris Helen and Brissey Iss is the ancestor of later Rome... Besides, what is this film trying to express? I can't see any common themes in the ancient Greek classics: the relationship between heaven and man, the impermanence of fate, the helplessness of heroes... Is the theme of a "Troy" just to praise the conversation between Achilles and Bruseis Sad and weeping love? It's just... a little too superficial. Many people watch this film to make it easier to step into the world of ancient Greece, to make it easier to read Homer's epics, ancient Greek tragicomedy and even Plato's works. But this Hollywood "epic blockbuster" is really misleading. I wonder if anyone will see Aeschylus' Oresteia trilogy ("Agamemnon", "Liberator", "Avenger") as a comedy after watching your film; read Euripides The "Women of Trojan" was astonished when he saw the character list; when he saw the "Symposium", he was baffled by the relationship between Patroclus and Achilles. The responsibility of making such a crappy film with a motif of Western culture is really not small. Personally, I feel that "Troy" is much worse than "Alexander the Great" in the same type of film, and cannot be compared with "Kingdom of Heaven". How did it get into so many recommended lists?
