Historical epic
A stellar cast with dazzling sets and costumes. The battle sequences are stunning and there are particularly good performances from Peter O'Toole as the King and Eric Bana as his heroic son. I thought Brad Pitt carried off the role of Achilles well but many I have spoken to thought he was wooden. Not as good as Gladiator, but in a similar vein.
