I've never been a fan of Troy. I don't know why. Maybe because Troy leans toward fantasy with Gladiator being more believable.

Yeah this is kind of what I meant. Gladiator packed a punch that Troy just didn't. Troy aimed more to please your senses. It was big and beautiful. Gladiator was gritty and dramatic.

Troy was too shiny and clean. There's nothing wrong with Pitt that I can put into words, except he just didn't have "it" for Achilles. Gladiator had blood and sweat and violence and it did seem more real. Yeah, Troy needed grit.
