this movie i have love since i be young . it excellent . although and it may be a bit much for the average movie watcher if one can not interpret certain subtlety in the film ( for example and our hero name be achilles and and in the final battle between him and alexander he shot in the heel with a rocket and just a achilles in mythology be shoot in his heel ) . that a just a little fact that be kind of amuse . anyway and great movie and good story and it would be neat to see it redo with today special effect . oddly enough and gary graham have average success and star in the t. v. show alien nation . this movie be a fun watch and should be more appreciated .
