I'm certainly going to go see it. We can compare our reviews. I was very unhappy with all the liberties taken with Troy. The story, as told in the Illiad, is a great one, I don't know WHY they had to mess with it. And since they killed Agamemnon in the movie, they wiped out the whole reason we have the Orestia.

It made the movie more enjoyable for my students to parse it for details that deviated from the Illiad- but everyone still agreed that Achilles was really really hot, and Helen was not.
