I watched Troy the other night, and I gotta say, it holds up.
I’m not saying that the critical consensus on Rotten Tomatoes that it is “a brawny, entertaining spectacle, but lacking emotional resonance,” isn’t partially true (Would it have killed them to include some actual Greek gods, and make the war last a little longer than like, three weeks?) but I hardly think its deficits are as weighty as what a 53% score warrants.
I’m excited to catch the Odyssey when it comes out in theaters, which is essentially Troy: The Sequel, and I’m considering giving a read-through of Homer’s poems a go.
But until all that, here are some facts you might not have known about 2004’s epic Troy.
