Perhaps because I wasn't expecting much I actually ended up liking this film and found it an enjoyable entertainment. Brad Pitt is fine as the undefeatable Achilles and Helen Kruger is simply gorgeous as Helen. Veteran Peter O'Toole plays Priamm the Trojan king. Orlando Bloom is Hector, Paris' brother. Worth a look.
