No doubt about it, the 196-minute unrated director's cut of Troy represents a significant improvement within the film's original 162-minute theatrical release--and not just as it has more sex and violence. As director Wolfgang Petersen notes in the new "Troy Revisited" video introduction to the 2-disc special edition, he didn't hold the time or directorial discretion (prior to Troy's release in 2004) to give a cut that more closely matched his vision to the film. Three years later, Petersen approached the film with a more stimulating perspective, and the result is often a well-crafted expansion over a film that's previously underrated, with Thirty minutes of previously unseen material. Character dynamics happen to be improved and intensified; the epic-scale narrative is now easier to follow, with greater emphasis about the inner turmoil of Achilles (well played by Brad Pitt) and his awesome rivalry with Hector (Eric Bana); and viewers will feel a much more satisfying escalation of tension and suspense from battle to battle. The film's enormous battle scenes (impressively enhanced with CGI) are bloodier and gorier, but they're also more efficiently integrated to the political story, which goes beyond Homer's The Iliad and also the death of Hector to include components of Virgil and a more revealing study of the differences between Trojan king Priam (Peter O'Toole) and his megalomanical Greek rival, king Agamemnon (Brian Cox), whose lust for revenge has become one in the film's most effective ingredients. Some of Troy's original weaknesses remain (such as Orlando Bloom's wimpy performance as Paris), but overall, this director's cut easily justifies its existence, regardless with the film's overblown and historically inaccurate depiction of Troy being a gigantic city of massive columns and statuary. The good parts are better, and the not-so-good parts tend to be easily forgiven. And regardless of how you cut it, Troy is really a lavish feast for that eyes. --Jeff Shannon

Brad Pitt accumulates a sword and brings a muscular, brooding presence for the role of Greek warrior Achilles on this spectacular retelling of The Iliad. Orlando Bloom and Diane Kruger play in the legendary lovers who plunge the world into war, Eric Bana portrays the prince who dares to confront Achilles, and Peter O'Toole rules Troy as King Priam. Director Wolfgang Petersen recreates a long-ago arena of bireme warships, clashing armies, the huge fortress city as well as the towering Trojan Horse.
