What made Achilles get back into the Trojan War?
Achilles and his Myrmidons were the best warriors in Greece at that time. After the falling out with Agamemnon (who took Achilles' concubine after his had to be returned to the Trojans), and Achilles' subsequent refusal to enter the battle, the Greeks didn't win a single engagement. The Greeks had been beaten back to their ships, which were in danger of being destroyed (which would leave the Greeks at the mercy of the Trojans), so Patroclus, his longtime friend and companion, convinced Achilles to let him wear Achilles' armor and lead the Myrmidons into battle. Achilles agreed, but ordered Patroclus to break off the attack once the ships were no longer in danger. But in the heat of battle, Patroclus ignored the command and he fought the Tojans back to the city gates where he was killed by Hector (who assumed he was fighting Achilles). He had killed 53 Trojans that day. Achilles, in anger, both at Hector and himself, Achilles challenged the Trojan prince to single combat, which Achilles won and then continued to lead the Myrmidons and the Achaeans to victory, ultimately dying at the hand of Paris. After the King and Achilles decided they couldn't settle their arguement, one of Achilles's closest friends stole his armor and rode into battle pretending to be Achilles. After he was killed in battle, Achilles felt he needed to avenge his fallen friend.

What is the summary of the movie Troy?
Throughout time, men have waged war. Some for power, some for glory, some for honor - and some for love. In ancient Greece, the passion of two of literature's most notorious lovers, Paris, Prince of Troy and Helen , Queen of Sparta, ignites a war that will devastate a civilization. When Paris spirits Helen away from her husband, King Menelaus , it is an insult that cannot be suffered. Familial pride dictates that an affront to Menelaus is an affront to his brother Agamemnon , powerful King of the Mycenaeans, who soon unites all the massive tribes of Greece to steal Helen back from Troy in defense of his brother's honor. In truth, Agamemnon's pursuit of honor is corrupted by his overwhelming greed - he needs to conquer Troy to seize control of the Aegean, thus ensuring the supremacy of his already vast empire. The walled city, under the leadership of King Priamand defended by mighty Prince Hector, is a citadel that no army has ever been able to breach. One man alone stands as the key to victory or defeat over Troy - Achilles , believed to be the greatest warrior alive. Arrogant, rebellious and seemingly invincible, Achilles has allegiance to nothing and no one, save his own glory. It is his insatiable hunger for eternal renown that leads him to attack the gates of Troy under Agamemnon's banner - but it will be love that ultimately decides his fate. Two worlds will go to war for honor and power. Thousands will fall in pursuit of glory. And for love, a nation will burn to the ground.
