This is a perfect "guy" film, and with major roles played by Brad Pitt and Olando Bloom, most girls will like it too! Veteran action director / producer, Wolfgang Petersen (Airforce One, In the Line of Fire, Outbreak) never lets this near 3 hour film drag for a minute. Set in ancient Greece and Persia, the sets are authentic down to the bronze swords and blue eyes painted on the boats. Highly recommended.
