While lying around on Sunday afternoon in my non-functional state (I’m having major issues sleeping right now and therefore not getting much more than 3-4 hours a day) I finally broke down and watched Troy. All in all, I really enjoyed the film and the cast, with the exception of The Brad.
The Good
Eric Bana owned this film. Owned it I tell you. His character was wonderful and he was just utterly fantastic. Every moment he was on screen, I was in heaven and I was very indifferent to him before watching this film. Now, I kind of want to bear his children.
The Bad
Brad’s accent. It came. It went. It just kind of sucked. Brad’s golden wavy locks and bronzed chiseled body glistening in the sun and/or moonlight throughout the entire film also made me unhappy and roll my eyes a few times. It’s no secret that I’m not a fan and haven’t been since about 1996 or so and I know it’s strange that I find him repulsive, but I do and there was just too much glistening Brad for my liking.
The Randomness
Diane Kruger should really think about gaining that 10-15 pounds or whatever she had to gain for the film back because she looked 1000 times better with a little more flesh on her face and a teensy bit of meat on her arms.
I never noticed how incredibly long and thin Saffron Burrows neck is. It’s really rather swan-like, but I can’t decide if that’s a good or bad thing or maybe just a little odd.
Orlando Bloom was very meh. His character is such a weenie that it was hard to be all about the Orlando.
Sean Bean was nothing less than awesome.

hi, i’m visiting this site for a while now, but it’s the first time, i’m commenting. hope, you don’t mind
1) i wouldn’t call me an eric bana fan, but i think, he has something catching. have you seen hulk or black hawk down? even he’s totally different in both roles, he makes them soo catching and belivable. (oh boy, what i’m talking about? *lol*)
2) wow, finally someone who’s not into brad pitt. i always thought he was soo boring and he’s not even ‘that’ good-looking, at all…
