Dude, you should have uploaded the original version with the original score. This directors cut version is terrible. ruins the scene.

Please sir can you teach me how to upload movies clip?

I wouldn't watch that low budget, trash, "true story" wannabe tough guy british bullshit if someone paid me $1000 ..

@Han Solo I'm with you there, I preferred the original duel theme

Да, хореографы были великолепны. Жаль сценаристы не были...

Achilles' perfection is indeed superhuman: for he is a demi-god (his mother was a minor goddess I believe). Even so, Hector's defeat may not have been a foregone conclusion: it's not inconceivable that the most skillful human warrior in the world might occasionally defeat a demi-god. And Achilles did have one weakness (his heel), though Hector probably didn't know that.

Agreed, I remember watching this thinking how Achilles came off looking 'almost' superhuman, whereas they could've made it look over-the-top by making him artificially overpowered.

Sangre por Sangre

i was always rooting for hector. he was fighting for and achilles was fighting against. I was hoping there was a way hector could kill achilles such as thinking about his loved ones his wife father brother and son and of course troy since he is the future king. I already imagine how he would have changed the outcome

everyone cheers for hector tbh. great scene either way even if hector lost the fight was insane@@shwheat6315

@shwheat6315 if hector had won the duel, he would have won the war then and there. The Greek soldiers had such faith in their greatest warrior, and if he had been slain by their enemy's greatest warrior, it would have sapped all of their morale to fight. In the movie, they considered leaving just because Achilles and his men hadn't joined the attack on the city.

Stupidity is more apt

Yeah I would’ve called for the archers 🤷🏾‍♂️

What does that mean, explain please

Who could be "blamed" for the Trojan War has been debated for over two thousand years. In my opinion, the goddess of discord Eris is the ultimate cause

This was Helen fault AND Paris but definitely more pairs than Helen 💯🗣️

Actually it was Memnon.. He was the best opponent Achilles ever faced. If you don't believe me, do some research.

Nah dude, they should have invited Eris to Peleo's wedding

What is Paris s mistake Helen came with him as she liked him 🤷🏻‍♂️ Menelaus was idiot, will you make a war against country and kill lakhs of innocents just because your wife doesn’t like you and went with someone else she likes

I always hated paris .

But he killed menelaus to protect his coward brother

@@nahualollin61 That's because he loved his brother, even though his brother brought upon war on Troy with his foolish deeds.

no. he let his brother do morally awfull things and then clean up after him. he is a litteral fixer in crime business. Yet he want to act like he is good and honest because he *clean* stuff. When he killed achille cousin, he didn't hesitate to take the chance and fight him right there, middle of bodies without checking if it was really him. he killed Menalus by suprised when he could have kick him back. SO not only he broke and honourable duel, but even assassinated the opponent who had no animosity against him. Sure paris is worst, but overall, Troy is full fo people who smell their own fart behind the wall. Hense why the horse works, they are all so inflatuated with themselves it's awfull

a true born king and leader

The physical acting and stuntwork definitely, but surely you're choosing to ignore his accent? 😂

And his crappy speech before the beach landing. Writers didn't help either

This could have been played in modern times by Chris Hemsworth to perfection. If Jude Law had been taller, bulked up, and grew his hair out, he would have been a perfect Achilles and certainly would have had a much more convincing accent than Pitt.

@@billywashere6965 Hemsworth? Puke. Overused in such roles, that he no longer feels fresh. He's in too many movies like this.

@@billywashere6965 Jude Law is no Prime-Brad Pitt, not genetically. Jude Law is a mighty fine actor, but does not have Brad Pitts bone-structure or muscle tie-ins and wouldn't have his Achillean build even with PEDs.

I completely agree with your opinion on how he’s portrayed in this film. Based off everything I’ve read. I feel like the story of him running until he had to fight, seems most likely. Who knows tho.

Yeah it would have been cooler to see Ajax kill more Trojans. And it would have been cool to see an actor worthy of the role of Hector.. The script was great, and Brad couldn't have played it any better. But my main point is I agree, Hector could have been given a lot more credit. "Oh dang the alien gods of Olympus have landed! Go out and kill them after you wash the dishes Hector." Yeah, too much of that vibe. But Brad was great. Epic. Which makes sense in a weird way. The world-class actor vs. the amateur. Etc. The scene has layers. Watched it about 10 times to figure out how Achilles got the spear end he stabbed Hector with (he grabbed it from him right?). Great combat sequence though from both actors.

@@chad9017 No he broke hectors spear in the beginning. It was Achilles spear he tosses it to the ground when hector trips if if I remember correctly. Then when hector has two swords Achilles picks his spear back up an snaps it in half before stabbing hector with it.

@@chad9017 you didn’t like Bana? Hmm lots of people online seem to think he was well casted

In the Iliad this scene is pretty anti climactic. Hector does in fact run from Achilles and is killed almost immediately upon turning to fight

The god warn hector using his dream but hector choose to fight even if he will be killed by achilles.he fight achilles for the honor of troy.

@@moisessanchez2365 no he wasnt he just a human

Well yeah, but then he still needs some time to think things over. Dragging Hector's body and not giving him a proper burial would have ruined everything. His own men could have turned against him and killed him for that, in order to appease the gods. That's why people killed witches, although Monty Python's point is valid.

@@keller0315 he was...his mother was a nimf..sort of a little spirit(god) of water..so he wasnt a big demigod...but not human

In the Iliad, Achilles is described as being incredibly fast, both in fighting and running, as well as being quick to anger. Homer said he was so fast that he could outrun Death.

@@conorbowen3360 Outrun death but not an arrow. TIL Death is slower than an arrow. :D

@@giftedmonster5293 Well, Death usually follows an arrow so you're not wrong :)

In reality, natural ambidextrous people have a slower responding time in term of dueling because their brain is often confused with which hand should respond.

@@PeacePham1991 not unless you're trained for obvious reasons, looks at skills such as piano, it trains very separate actions to a detailed level on both hands

That was his programming so

mate, are you daft? "THAT IS WHY NO ONE WILL REMEMBER YOUR NAME".

Well in another life perhaps, but he was also slave of his own honor. All greeks declared an oath to go an rescue Helen if she was taken by someone else. Both of theme are the same kind of warrior on the inside. Both seek to protect what they love and fight for what they wanted. Aquilles fought so that he could be remembered and Hector fought so that Troy was safe, even if his brother doomed all the city from the beginning. Both deserved to live but only one could come un top.

Yes, because he fought for an asshole King that he despised! It's like that in real life as you are loyal to people or work for people you despise that treat you bad when they're much better people or jobs out there that you just haven't come across. It's truly a misfortunate type of thing because he truly could have joined the Trojans and married their cousin and welcomed in the family as a brother. The Trojans would have had the best 2 athletes on the planet in their service, so, all the other countries would have feared them. Lol

Achilles was gay though and Patroclus was his lover.

They actually held off the Greeks and only met their downfall because of the Trojan Horse.

Who is the uncle? No reference to him in the film.

The rightful name of this movie shd have been THE FOOLISH KING

A great movie that was underrated because the timing was bad as Gladiator with Russell Crowe came out before it and cleaned up at the Oscars. Had this been in reverse it would have been Troy and Brad Pitt taking home the Oscars.

There are 3 things that make me love so much this scene. First, they show how tiresome is fighting and dueling. Second, they showed how efficient armor is, even in this age. And lastly, they've used the Gladius correctly - as a piercing weapon, not a cutting/slashing one.

Can't help it.. Hector's fate was decided by Homer 2800 years ago.. 🤷‍♂️

Sorry but he is not in heaven, he is in hell. Listen or play rock, drugs adictions, take the name of God in vain, sex before get married also known as fornication, drink beer an other beers etc are sins, and sins send people to hell but obeying the bible You can make heaven!Good news! • Did you know that there is someone who died for you on a cross so that you could achieve eternal life? • Did you know that you only have two paths after death? The Bible tells us in the book of Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." and in Ecclesiastes 7:20 it says "Certainly there is no righteous man on earth who does good and never sins." This tells us that all human beings are sinners (we all break God's law), therefore, we deserve God's punishment for going against his word, but the good news is that through his son Jesus Christ we can obtain forgiveness of sins: John 3:16 [16] For God loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish, but may have eternal life. Romans 5: 8 [8] But God shows his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Jesus Christ the only begotten son of God died on a cross for all humanity more than 2000 years ago, rising on the third day and paying a high price for our sins, since in the Bible it tells us that there is a heaven after death but also There is a hell and the kingdom of heaven can only be reached through Jesus Christ through the forgiveness of sins, it is not through any virgin or any saint, or by any other means, there is only one mediator between God and men, so if you want to go to heaven you have to repent of your sins (fornication, lies, etc.) and follow Jesus (obey biblical commandments). Christ is coming soon! Judgments come to earth (asteroids, earthquakes, etc.), seek God who has great things for your life. God bless you. Prayer: Prayer: dear Lord Jesus forgive my sins, I know that I am a sinner and I need your forgiveness, enter my heart and guide me towards eternal life, thank you. Amen

I know right

@@nutsallinyomouf ylolololp098

Freshy freshy off the sidelines Achillies was. No one can say that wouldnt have been a factor. I dont think Hector was tired from fighting 1 man. More like he was tired from fighting for days already. What it looked like to me, anyways. I think thats the only reason Achillies won.

@@jonathanvang2821 but he was remembered tho that they told tales about him for centuries

No he isn't protected by any god, infact Achilles died bcz a god helped

He was defintely not protected by Apollo xD

😂😂😂😂😂fact yooo

I think that was more him showing off than anything

He was mocking Hector by doing that. The shield + sword combo is amazing in one on one combat. Not using the shield for what it is designed for would be practically suicide in a real fight against a skilled opponent. So Achilles was really just saying "i'm so much better than you, i can have a shield on my back to slow me down, not use it at all and still dominate you".

He was definitely using it to keep the sun out of his eyes

I was really hoping Hector would have won. But, this was a lie in my head. He fought against someone that isn't afraid of dying.

Troy did get a revenge from my fellow greeks, since Rome was founded by the refugies as the myth goes....

no because he killed the cousin who was just a kid he deserved his death

and if it makes anyone mad watch the clip over and over Achilles gutted him right in front of his wife and home beat him like he was a baby compared to him over and over gutted

If Paris and Hector swapped so that Hector lived, that would have been better. It's all because of Paris that the war happened.

I’d put the duel between the dread pirate roberts and inigo Montoya in the princess bride up there as well

Hector is a commander and leader while Achilles has a killer instinct. that is the difference between them. Achilles fight for vengeance and Hector fight to defend.

And if you watch closely he attempted it twice he missed it the first time and then the second time he grabbed it

@@kingnaim2473 good eye!

No he didn’t? He grabbed at it once and got it? Wtf are you watching

@@petercoundrelis4495 I think he means during the sequence at 4:06 he sort of makes a move like he's trying to take the spear. Debatable for sure.

@@joestarships not debatable at all he swiped his hand away while moving backwards

yeah, that's a hard scene to look at because he just totally disrespected the King, Hector's father and the city of Troy by dragging a Prince through dirt like that. It's just F'ed up, but he was mad because Hector killed his cousin even though it was an accident because Hector thought it was him.

@@tubucoco But he shows great remorse afterwards, that was moving.

You tire fast in a fight, the great Bruce Lee showed that to people which is why he kept his body in such phenomenal shape. He spoke about fights in which he should have finished off opponents much faster, but wasn't in tip-top shape and so it took longer than it should have.

That was one take? Where were the cuts you insecure peasant

Yea the blonde guy have better stamina

hector put most of his points into charisma while achilles put them on stamina

@@apocratos0174 ... if you know what I mean 😉

But the one that makes Achilles much more dangerous is that his mother dipped him into the river Styx, which makes his body invulnerable to normal weapons (except his heels, where his mother hold him when she dipped him)

But they were all defeated by Kassandra. She was also an Isu descendant, a demigod in the views of mortals,。Her father was the Isu Pythagoras, and her mother was the daughter of Leonidas.

Achilles blocking Hectors low slash attack with his shin guard was even better

And Achilles is the great grandson of Zeus.

All but his heels because his mother held them to dip him in the river Styx. That is why they are called the achilles tendon.

The Lion doesn't concern with an opinion of sheep

🤣🤣🤣

That would have been iconic

Don't think that would've worked, he had a shield and a half-god body that's invulnerable to harm (except the heel)

@@9ielts probably true but that would surely provide enough distraction for him to run back to the city gates..

He did tire in this fight though, you could see him breathing hard. He knew Hector was an worthy opponent.

The only bad dialogue in the movie was Pitt's Achilles calling King (whatever his name was, I forget right now), but calling him a "sack of wine". Lol I knew they were referring to a sack of shit, but people didn't talk like that in ancient times, so, they had to come up with somethin I guess. Lol

​@@tubucoco They actually did, I read the Iliad and I was in awe Achilles roasted him calling him "a fat sack of wine" and "dogfaced"

Yeah and those powerful words of perhaps the entire movie followed after he came out to face him. "You'll wonder through the underworld tonight without sight, without ears or a tongue. Blind, deaf, and dumb. And they'll look at you and say, there goes Hector the fool that thought he killed Achilles". Lol

Far above Hector, remember that Achilles was a demigod, not exactly a fair fight 😂 but he managed to get Achilles a bit winded, which is an amazing accomplishment since Hector was a man. Worthy opponent, but only had, like they say in boxing a punchers chance
