Movie Reviews of Troy (Director's Cut) [HD DVD]
Movie Review: Great Epic - Must See for Men
Summary: 5 Stars
I believe Troy to be one of the greatest epic films ever made. Except for a few sexual scenes the movie is clean - they could have left those scenes out. Effects were a knockout - very real battle scenes - awe spiring when the Greek army approached Troy to do battle. Well written and never a dull moment. I especially liked how they portrayed Hector as a man of honor, valor, and brave to the end. Hector became my hero of the movie and one of my all time favorite characters.
This movie has made my top five favorite movies due to the cinematography, plot, actors, battle scenes, and effects. I felt I went back in time when I watched the movie.
The special features were very interesting and gave good insight on the immensity of making such a movie.
Men - if you like battles, brave soldiers, and great special effects this movie is for you.
Enjoy!!!!
Movie Review: Troy - Director's Cut
Summary: 5 Stars
Troy - Director's Cut is not better than the original movie, but hooked fans of the movie can enjoy extra scenes, converstations or quotes.
Also - as an example - it gives a better idea why King Priam's belief in gods was so foolish.
Movie Review: Troy
Summary: 4 Stars
Michael and I watched this on TV from our room in New York City. I tried to explain it to him and to myself. It is from the Iliad written by the Greek poet Homer. Ilium is a word for Troy. Trojan Paris seduced Helen, the wife of King Menelaus of Greece. The Greeks sacked Troy, using a wooden horse to enter the city. Brad Pitt is Achilles, the Greek hero who kills Hector. Achilles dies when Paris shoots an arrow into his heel. Michael asked if the part about the horse was true. I said the story is half true and half made up. The Trojan War was fought around 1200 B.C. Homer lived around 800 B.C.
Movie Review: Incredible movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
There is so much detail in the clothes, armour and the props they built to do this movie. There is a 2nd CD that has great behind the scenes information telling how they put the movie together. The acting is very good and the story line is good. Very entertaining!Movie Review: Teacher used this to culminate Greek Mythology Unit
Summary: 5 Stars
My 7th grade students and I have been doing our Greek mythology unit for 3 weeks now. In the past I have ended the unit with Hercules and the Disney version of the movie. I thought this year to end the mythology unit read about the Trojan War. The kids were really into it but confused about all of the characters. When we watched to movie together they finally understood. It sparked deep discussions and several realizations on the part of the students. It was a great culmination activity! Only had to skip 1 part (mild sexual content) but it didn't spoil the experience. Great historical references (clothing, language, traditions etc.)
