    Reflection Paper Of the movie, “troy”

    The movie, “Troy”, was based on the ancient Greek epic, the Iliad and depicts the Trojan War
    as based by Homer. The war started because of the love affair between Prince Paris of Troy and
    Queen Helen, the wife of the King Menelaus of Sparta. After finding out that the Queen left her
    home and went with her lover to Troy. Helen never thought of Sparta as her home because he
    married a greedy womanizer After Menelaus found out about this, he swears to get revenge upon
    Troy. He has seek help from his brother, Agamemnon, the King of Mycenae. The purpose of
    Agamemnon to have agreed his brother’s request was mostly because for him to rule over Troy.
    Before I explain/express my thoughts about the movie, I would like to give a short summary about
    the happenings on the movie based on my understanding:

    When a fleet of one thousand Greek ships sail to Troy, the battle occurs. The first boat to set
    on the land was Achilles’ with his men and cousin, Patroclus. Though his men were quite
    frightened by the idea that they should go ahead without the permission of Agamemnon. Achilles
    asked his men on who they follow, if it was him or the king. When the boat set on the shore,
    Patroclus pleaded his cousin to fight alongside him All Achilles wanted was to hog the glory with
    his great strength and skill to wipe out most of the soldiers who were there by the shore. The
    Trojans thought they couldn’t stand a chance against the Greeks and so they prayed to their god,
    Apollo, even though their shrines were ruined/raided by the Greeks. Priest and Priestess were
    killed during the battle, except for one. Briseis, the cousin of Hector and Paris was held captive by
    the Greeks. Achilles was enrage when Agamemnon said his intentions to the maiden. Achilles said
    that he should left the innocent alone and because of this incident, Achilles withdrawn from the
    battle for a while.

    When a lot of men were slaughtered during the war, Paris and Helen were so guilty. So Paris
    decide to offer a one on one with Menelaus to see who gets to keep Helen. After knowing Paris’
    decision, the maiden became guilty and took the blame all to herself
    Ads by and thought that none of this
