La Antigua Greca has always provided arguments for literature, theater, cinema, television and for a time to be part of video games as well. The stories are classic and always attractive, so throughout the XNUMXth century and what has happened in the XNUMXst century we have seen many movies and series about Ancient Greece.
Do you like the theme? There are people who love action movies, science fiction movies, love movies and of course, there are also people who enjoy a movie that takes place in Ancient Greece. Hollywood knows it well so here's one list of movies from Ancient Greece or Greek mythology:
- Troy: is a relatively recent film starring Brad Pitt based on certain events in The Iliad and The Odyssey. Brad Pitt could not be more beautiful, but at the same time it is an entertaining film with good supporting actors like Orlanda Bloom or Eric Bana.
- Helena of Troy: is a 2003 TV series that focuses on the story of Helen in times of the Trojan War. It does not follow the work of Homer to the letter, yes. It lasts at least three hours.
- Jason and the Argonauts: It is a typical 1963 film, with stop-motion figures that today are nice and funny, but still entertaining.
- Hercules and his Legendary Journeys: It is a TV series that lasted at least a decade and we watched it all over the world. He even had some crossover with Xeena, the Warrior princess (this series was a spin-off of the first one).
- Alexander: it was a highly criticized film, with historical inaccuracies. Critics recommend viewing the final edition and not the common version.
- 300: classic movie by now, right? It focuses on the Battle of Thermopolis and for many it is great.
- The odyssey: is a TV series that began airing in 1997 and is a good adaptation of the play.
In addition to these titles we can always name War of the Titans, The Immortals or movies based on the Percy Jackson books. Like time, movies, books and even animation series know how to take advantage of the stories of ancient Greece.
