Quite surprised by this. Was expecting a complete t**d, but it was actually pretty good. Don't care how unaccurate (whatever) it is to the original texts, but they made a good film out of it.

Few dodgy things though:

1) I didn't realise that ancient Grecians and Trojans actually came from New York, Somerset, Yorkshire and Liverpool. The accents were all over the place. Especially Boromir - he didn't even try!

2) All the men wore skirts and kissed each other lots. Gaylords.

3) Bradley is no name for an action star. Nor is Eric or Orlando.

Worth renting out though.

I seem to remember he got slashed in the leg and then crawled over to his brother like the gimp he was.

The Aussie guy was the best...well, him and Pitt. Pitt's cousin was a tart too.

Did he?

Oh, must have forgotten about that. He deserved to die though, die horribly me thinks.

I actually thought Pitt made quite a good job of it.

The fact that Bloom, who was a complete gimp throughout the film killed him just made me laugh more then anything else.

I thought it was rubbish.

Pitt and Bloom were clearly cast just to attract the female audience, who were clearly wetting themselves in excitement in cinemas, as my 45-year old female Media Studies teacher so eloquently pointed out :0x

He did get stabbed...

And Pitt shouldn't have been portrayed as the main character.

I quite liked it.

Didn't think Pitt was cast well though.

Oh and Bloom was even more of a girly boy than usual, really wish he'd got stabbed.
