Movie Reviews of Helen of Troy
Movie Review: Better than "Troy" with Brad and Orli
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best telling of the story of the downfall of Troy that I have ever watched... including that blockbuster "Troy" which starred Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom. It may not be as visually stunning as that high-budget version, but it does an amazing job telling a lot more of the legend. It starts out with Paris's birth and continues all the way through to the end of the war (though, thankfully most of the war years are breazed over in a few minutes). :)
This is a great two part mini series. When it aired on TV a few years ago, I taped it on my VCR and I have since then worn it out watching it over and over again, so I am extatic that this DVD is available.
I highly recommend it!
Summary of Helen of Troy
One of the most epic adventure stories of all time comes powerfully to life in this original four-hour epic-series. Filmed in exotic locales with an international cast and featuring state-of-the-art special effects, Helen of Troy depicts one of the greatest battles ever fought to win the love of the world's most beautiful woman. Though married to Menelaus, King of Sparta, Helen (Sienna Guillory) falls madly in love with Paris (Matthew Marsden) a handsome Trojan prince. Together, the lovers flee to Troy, where they are given safe haven by Paris' father, King Priam (John Rhys-Davies). Bent on bringing Helen back, the king's ruthless brother Agememnon (Rufus Sewell) leads the skilled Spartan army to the shores of the fabled city. There the Greeks lay siege to Troy, thus beginning one of history's most legendary wars which would ultimately decide the destinies of two empires.Action & Adventure DVD Video
