Disneyland also did a GREAT job updating Pirates of the Caribbean as well.
We went a few weeks ago.

You didn't like "Troy"? Eric Bana was terrific as Hector...as was Brad Pitt
as Achilles.

Yes, there are boating scenes in this move. A storm, even.

Nonetheless, The 300 is one of the worst movies I have seen so far this
year.

Interesting computer graphics, and some first-rate "monsters," but the
plot, the rationale, the dialogue, oh my goodness, they were awful, just
awful.

It's hard to remember a first-class movie of any sort based upon ancient
Greek history and mythology, which is amazing, considering how powerful
the stories are.

Jule Dassin's retelling of Phaedra wasn't bad, but of course it had Melina
Mercouri in it. Zorba had some interesting mythological and historical
references, but it was set in contemporary times. Costa-Gavras' "Z" was
also a tale of modern times.

Where are the great movies involving Ulysses, Achilles, Paris, Helen, et
cetera?

(And they'd all involve the Aegean and Mediterranean and boats!)

I saw it. Little, pretty boy Brad Pitt as Achilles was the funniest bit
of casting. The movie had little in common with Homer's Illiad. As an
example, in the book, Achilles died before the Trojan horse was
constructed. The female lead in the movie, the pretty girl who played
Helen of Sparta, was blonde, just as unlikely as the medieval depictions
of Jesus as a fair-haired, blue-eyed northern European.

It wasn't a bad costume drama, though.
