There are many reasons to recommend Troy as a good ol' fashioned Hollywood epic, especially if you've never read Homer's The Iliad. Dispensing with Greek gods altogether, this earnestly massive production (budgeted at upwards of $200 million) will surely offend historians and devoted students of the classics (for them, there's the History Channel's Troy).
Writer/director Wolfgang Petersen (Air Force One, In the Line of Fire) cranks up the suspense in this riveting thriller that will "keep you guessing [up until its] shockingly unexpected ending" (The Washington Post)! A stellar cast-including Tom Berenger, Bob Hoskins, Greta Scacchi, Joanne Whalley-Kilmer and Corbin Bernsen-breathes life into this gripping film noir about the survivor of a car accident who begins to suspect his near-death...was no accident.
