So i just watched Troy for the first time.
I really enjoyed the movie! This isnt a review but a entry to just think back on the movie.
Quick thoughts first- acting was good but not great, screen play is great, direction and cinematography is above average but nothing to brag over, Fighting scenes though are amazing you can see that Brad Pitt is the superior Soldier in this movie and its great.
All in all i would give this movie a 8 out of 10

SO the real reason why i am writing…The underlying message of the movie is confusing to me, i cant really find what it is. The Main thing i think for this movie is to Choose What to fight For. What is really important? not what a king tells you to do but what you believe in. And i think this movie is something to watch more than once and to think back on what your values in life really are.
One thing that really got me in this movie was when Brad Pitt said that Gods envy us and we shouldnt them. Everything is more beautiful because tomorrow could be our last day. We value things more because we dont live forever. I dont believe in their Gods but i do agree with what he is saying, we need to value things in this life and not always worry about trying to live forever.
I dont want to leave a Legacy, although i would enjoy that, my main purpose on this planet is to make my life, how ever long that is, (another 10 years or maybe just a few more days) to make it fun. I want to enjoy my life. I dont want to live to serve my community. Yes i would help any person on this planet, with some exceptions but i live to please myself in the end.
Some might think, oh this kid is selfish, no i am not. Think about it, really, when you help someone else, why do you do it?
Not always to help them, but to make yourself feel better.

If i find a women and i love her i will want to do anything to make her happy. I want to do this to keep her in my life and blah blah balh. I do this for myself.
Our world is a selfish one and in the end i want to just please myself. Some people do this by leaving a legacy, or just a name behind. Some want to be known as the best warrior who ever lived, i want to just be a good director in the film industry.
As long as i enjoy my life i am fine. I dont live to serve others, I live to serve myself…
