I'll admit it wasn't bad as long as I don't think that it's based on the Illiad at all. Since when are the Greeks of that time athiests? I'm fine with them not having actual gods get involved, but people should have at least believed that the gods were involved. The wrong people got killed, and the wrong people killed them. Agammemnon died, which means that he couldn't go home, be murdered by his wife and lover which means their son would never kill her and then a whole bunch of stuff very important to Greek mythology would never have happened at all.
Then there were smaller things that only bug people like me. Like how they had this kind of bird in the movie that is native to Australia and didn't leave that continent until the 1900s.
