There are many battle scenes depicting the war between the two states. Achilles, portrayed by Brad Pitt, sides with the Greeks. He is a half-god and is nearly unbeatable in combat, accept for his heel. His arch-enemy in the story is Hector, the brother of Paris and also a very skilled warrior. The story of the Trojan horse is also included. The Greeks smuggle themselves into a giant wooden horse in order to infiltrate the walls of Troy. It is through this method that the warriors of Greece manage to defeat the Trojans.
