No. Not you. The movie. . .

Watched it last night. Not too bad. Brad Pitt's annoying as a person. And, he annoyed me being in the movie. But, I was still able to watch it. Very "Gladiator" like movie. I liked Gladiator better too. No idea how close to history it stuck. You'll have to ask Gordon that. Over all, it didn't hurt to watch the movie. If you're into sword/spear battles and stuff, then this movie should entertain you. If you're into love stories and stuff, well, you're gay (unless you're a girl). But there's some of that in this movie too. I mean duh. The whole war was over a woman (sort of). I'd put it lower on the list of movies to watch unless you dig the fighting stuff I mentioned earlier.

I didn't really care for it too much. Seems like since LotR and the MASSIVE engine, everybody wants to make crappy movies with hiuge battles, thinking they'll cover up the formulaic plot.

As far as accuracy, the entire basis of the movie is barely more than myth as it is, so there's plenty of room for artistic license.

Brad Pitt was extremely hot in this movie, that alone made this movie enjoyable. And the guy I saw it with seemed to dig the battle scenes. Over all, Id say it was a decent flick.

Did ya hear Brad and Jen are over? No one saw that one coming!

I was glad when he died, I can't imagine a hero figure that I disliked more than him. This isn't Pitt hate either, I like most of the roles he plays but I just wanted the jackass to die here.

The fight with the Hulk was alright... in a homoerotic look at me leap/skip in a mini skirt way. Nevermind, won't be buying this dvd and I buy alot of dvds.

Besides being a major guy flick because of all the fighting. I actually didn't find the movie that bad. Even thou the critics say otherwise. Some of the editing left holes in the love story line that made it hard to piece in. Overall it is worth a watch, not something you might want on the shelf.

I think there was already a thread on this movie. And knowing Gordon he'll get pissy about you making another one instead of searching for the old one. But I really liked this movie and though Brad was totally hot. The fight scenes were cool too.
