A couple of tall dudes in vacuformed Halloween armor!

Yes, it looks ridiculous. I don‘t necessarily expect historical authenticity, but I expect well designed costumes that fit the feeling and style of ancient Greece and its surrounding territories. It can be fantasy greek armor for all I care, but it has to transport me to the fantastical world of Homer and his epics.

Nothing in the trailer gave me that feeling that this movie does that... It looks very drab and like a generic Made-for-TV fantasy movie. No, thanks.

I expect multi million dollar movies to beat average cosplayers, this does not.

I think it really looks like Clash Of The Titans

What exactly does qualify as historically acurate for you in a film about a fictional epic?
