T-Roy.

I went and saw the movie that shares its name with my dad, and let me tell you... I was entertained. It takes a movie like this to help you realize what elements a film must have in order to be considered 'good'. I didn't see many of them in Troy.

Perhaps if a movie is burgeoning on three hours long, and contains one or more actors from The Lord of the Rings, studios are fairly sure they will have a successful film. And maybe they're right. When I walked out of my door tonight, I didn't want to watch an Academy Award-worthy (not that it means much) piece of art. I wanted to watch a big-budget summer blockbuster piece of Hollywood schlock. And that is exactly what I got, thank Gods.
