    Although this film simplifies the story somewhat, and rearranges some scenes, it includes a lot of the major action, and its re-creation of the Homeric humanity is certainly an absorbing and well crafted feat. I would thoroughly recommend this movie for both History and mythology fans, and inexpert viewers simply after a good film.
