Troy

THE ROLE Achilles, Homer's fierce Greek warrior with the unfortunate heel issue

WHAT EW SAID Lisa Schwarzbaum: ''Pitt is trained, he's exfoliated, he's moisturized, he's in tip-top operating condition for a 40-year-old movie star of moderate acting range and genetically blessed good fortune; he's as golden to look at as Troy — Troy Donahue.''
