Just watched Troy for the first time since 2004. I recalled how much I hated Orlando Bloom in that movie. Not only because he was a pimp and a coward, but also because he killed the hottest guy on earth with arrows. Then I realized something. Wait a minute. Orlando Bloom. Arrows. LEGOLAS!!! I immediately started cheering for Orlando Bloom. But yeah. How come Brad Pitt dies in so many of his movies? Troy, Fight Club, Benjamin Button, etc. You would think someone as big of a star as Brad Pitt would have a higher chance of survival. An extreme case would be Tom Cruise. That guy never dies. Anyways, just wanted to say that the movie had a lot of dumb people in it, but Brad Pitt somehow managed to make the movie entertaining. P.S. I loved the line by Boromir "Women complicates things" - he was one of the few brighter dudes. I'm starting to like that actor now. He plays a lot of villian roles but I totally loved him in Troy. I mean, what kind of a dumbass would think of making a giant wooden horse and hide people in it, and what kind of dumbasses would fall for it. If you haven't seen the movie yet, don't watch it unless you are looking for some hot actions from Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom. I would also like to note that if Legolas fought Achilies, I would cheer for Legolas. Mostly because Legolas will live for another few thousand years if he wins, but Achilies is a mortal. Overall, I would rate the movie a 7, and Brad Pitt a 10.
