In general i love historical movies, and i'm sad that we hardly get that anymore, but i guess it's because of the cost it is to make those movies and if they fail it would be a costly mistake, but i really like this movie!
shareYou most certainly are not :)
shareI hate it when people ask this question. Did you look at the rating? It's clearly obvious you aren't the only one out of billions of people on earth who like this movie. Such an annoying question.
Hear me now! This place is cursed, damned, and yes your master is the devil!
I enjoyed it immensely. A very LOTR-esque Greek epic.

shareAm i the only one who liked this movie?
The greatest? Hardly.
Gladiator? Spartacus? The Fall of the Roman Empire?
I never saw The Fall of the Roman Empire (although it's on my watchlist), but Troy is decidedly superior to the overrated Gladiator IMHO.
As for 1960's Spartacus, the first hour stands with this best movies of all time, sword & sandal or otherwise; but the next two hours pale by comparison (still good though). So, as a whole, I feel Troy is superior.
