Just to break up the reunion posts for a bit - I just saw this film last night for the first time and actually thought it was pretty damn good, but don't remember hearing much opinion about it when it came out.
i am yet to watch the film,i got it ages ago but hcouldnt be fucked watching it lol,of the opinions i have heard its an either love it or hate it film,pretty sure it was classed as a failure at the box office.
Firstly - who cares about Jolie's acting - she is JUST HOT!
Seconly best thing about Troy is the fact it was filmed in Malta (my parents home country) and once again my dad's 80+ year old uncle got a bit part in it (he was in Gladiator as well - lucky bugger).
Personally I felt the film was rather shit. Eric Bana was the only interesting character for me. Pitt was Shit. Bloom was Legolas.
