In the account of Dares, the Phrygian, Menalaus, King of Sparta was described as "..of moderate stature, auburn-haired, and very handsome. He had a pleasing personality." A very fierce warrior. Like Achilles and Odysseus, he struck down so many men, there were oceans of blood at his feet. Yet, an extremely kind and wise ruler. Thought to be the fairer beside his brother, Agamemnon.

The fact he even lasted as long as he did was proof of that, plus how cocky Menelaus was being, he just had to wait him out for that perfect moment to strike.

Even though Achilles’ side (the Mycenaeans) won the war, they returned to a land they no longer recognized because over a decade had passed and people grew up/moved on without them. They took all the warlords and heroes and left behind the women and children to forge a new society.

Good strategy. When your not strong enough to hold your own on the battlefield, run from it a beg for protection.

Its more Easy for all people to love a winner instead a loser, but Helen still love him....She love a loser, no Mater what. ❤️❤️❤️

We all need a brother like Hector

This would be a lot more easier fight if Paris trained more. If you wanna charm other men's wives, make sure you're just as skilled as Hector or even Achilles.. Otherwise your head will be rolling down the battle sands in case your brother Hector wasn't there lol

@7503funkymonkey

In the Homeric traditions, Menelaus treated Helen as well as could be expected for a king in ancient Greek times. If anything, Menelaus was portrayed as one of the few unequivocally decent heroes on the Greek side, despite being overshadowed by others like Ajax Telemon and Diomedes, contrasting with his terrible older brother, Agamemnon, whose life typified the cursed lineage of the House of Atreus. It's just that Helen was bewitched by Aphrodite to fall in love with Paris. Unfortunately, Menelaus often gets villainized in modern interpretations because Helen has absolutely 0 agency as a character in the original myth, being sent for political marriage to Menelaus and then being bewitched by Aphrodite and everything. So in order to give Helen self-agency and present her as a modern, independent women who follows love, people tend to do Menelaus dirty so as to justify Helen's elopement

If you know your Odyssey, this change to the source material is the MOST satisfying death.

As epic & dramatic as this fight is in the movie: In the original myth, Menelaus actually survives the entire war (he is one of the strongest & bravest heroes), while Paris gets killed in battle (he doesn't get killed by Menelaus though, but by another Greek hero). After the sack of Troy, Menelaus reconnects with Helen & takes her home to Sparta. I don't really know why they changed this storyline in the movie. It's like the scriptwriters wanted to say: See, it's ok to kidnap someone else's woman, get your entire family (who are nice & decent ppl) killed, have your city destroyed, burned down, looted + thousands of innocent ppl killed or enslaved, and still get to live the rest of your life with that bitch woman.

Major acting props to Orlando Bloom. Back when I first saw this movie I knew from LOTR and Pirates that he had serious action-hero chops, but I 100% bought him here as a preppy kid who can't fight for shit.

Every thing is fair in love and war what a great and one of my favourite of all time.

in my opinion, this movie is highly underrated.. The Achilles vs Hector scene is one of the best fight sequences in film alone.
