Genre: Historical, Adventure, War
Plot: Throughout time, men have waged war. Some
for power, some for glory, some for honor -- and some for love.
In ancient Greece, the passion of two of history's most legendary
loves, Paris Prince of Troy (Orlando Bloom) and Helen (Diane Kruger),
Queen of Sparta, ignites a war that will devastate a civilization.
When Paris steals Helen away from her husband, King Menelaus (Brendan
Gleeson), it is an insult that cannot be suffered. Familial pride
dictates that an affront to Menelaus is an affront to his brother
Agamemnon (Brian Cox), powerful King of the Myceneans, who soon
unites all the massive tribes of Greece to steal Helen back from
Troy in defense of his brother's honor.
In truth, Agamemnon's pursuit of honor is corrupted by his overwhelming
greed -- he needs control of Troy to ensure the supremacy of his
already vast empire. The walled city, under the leadership of
King Priam (Peter O'O'Toole) and defended by mighty Prince Hector
(Eric Bana), is a citadel that no army has been able to breach.
One man alone stands as the key to victory or defeat over Troy
-- Achilles (Brad Pitt), believed to be the greatest warrior alive.
Arrogant, rebellious and seemingly invincible, Achilles has no
allegiance to anyone or anything, save his own glory. It is his
insatiable hunger for eternal renown that leads him to attack
the gates of Troy under Agamemnon's banner -- but it will be love
that ultimately decides his fate.
Two worlds will go to war for honor and power. Thousands will
fall in pursuit of glory. And for love, a nation will burn to
the ground. -- © Warner Bros.
