Like many have said, it does NOT follow the historical Illiad, so once I just resolved my issues with that and pretended it was an entirely different made up story, I thought it was fine. The no clear-cut villian really put some of the meat into the story, because people weren't just ruled out. The scene with Achilles and the King of Troy, I think, was one of the best in the film.
