    BY: MA. ROSELLE PAULINE PERALTA The movieTroy” which was released in 2004 was a fairly remarkable movie. However‚ the scene starting with the Trojan Horse being found by the Trojans and ending with Troy being sacked had lacked effectiveness.

However‚ the film critics were harsh on this movie‚ as they had every right to be‚ and
