Just about to watch this film - haven't read the book but it is next on my list.
Have to say I thought the first movie was brilliant - even with the subtitle - and I have read the first two books.
Obviously it wasn't possible to include everything in the movie but there was enough to whet the appetite for the sequel.
As a Scot I wouldn't put too much store on the Braveheart comparison. Braveheart was a Hollywood abomination with little or no respect for the real story - eg No bridge at the Battle of Stirling Bridge!!! As for Troy - the first and greatest epic tale ever written (which I have also read) - Hollywood once again creates a vile and obscene version of the tale, changing the story to make sure Brad Pitt survives until the final scenes and allowing Paris to survive the final battle (and what was the pronunciation of the names about) Despite some negative comments I am looking forward to watching this movie and will mark it later.
