Excellent, a Must See

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

" The Trojan Horse" is a political thriller that surprises and disappoints on many levels. It has an original premise, Canada is joining the USA.And then the more and more blurred line between good and bad guys, and of course, the oil, cause of just about every war in last 25 years. The problem with this movie are the obvious, crude references to daily politics, and the people that we all remember with shudder. That just wasn't necessary, we would get the not so subtle message anyway. The world of power is a world of ruthless, disturbed people and they can't be trusted. I knew that for a very long time, but nevertheless I found this flick entertaining, but forgettable.

Wow! Talk about gripping and intellectually surprising! This film is superb! I had previously been unable to find a copy of the miniseries that preceded it (H20), but I went on another quest after watching only part of "The Trojan Horse". I will now have the complete set to relish. What a treat this is! I'm not all that fond of action / political thrillers, but I think this one will (or should) become a classic. I am constantly drawn further in and can never see what comes up next. Very well written, directed; acted. Do not miss this film - you won't regret the 3 hours one little bit. You will want more! I agree with poster on the discussion board. If Tom McLaughlin is the bad guy, I say - let's elect him not once but twice and hang on for the ride! I don't see his character as a liar and a cheat but rather as a perhaps flawed hero with noble ideas that I would love to see pushed forward.I loved the speech he made to the reporter - "Citadel on a hill? (We should all consider ourselves) citizens of the world!" meaning let's get serious about holding up our end of the bargain as a member of the global community. I want to see a sequel where he carries out his program! I think what he calls for is doable and would make a huge advance in uplifting civilization for all earth's inhabitants.And don't miss the predecessor, H2O!

I wasn't sure where this was headed until the ending. when it turned out that this was all a liberal conspiracy to hand the world over to European wimps and the United Nations. What a load of right-wing crud! Incidentally, the bit about Canada joining the US didn't really have much to do with the plot at all and the idea was never developed. The only point of it seems to be that it made the main character eligible to run for President(but they could have just made him American and dispensed with that). In any event, this was a load of bull and not worth your time. If you wan't to see this kind of thing done well, check out the brilliant BBC political thriller "State of Play."

Continuation of the mini-series,H20. Canada has joined the U.S. Canada has been divided up into six states. As for the former prime minister,Tom McLaughlin,things did not go the way he planned. He is out of a job. So,along with his cohorts and a few European leaders,he plans to run for president and bring down to U.S.A. He eventually meets his former wife,Mary,who is the head of the republican party and a Texas billionaire,they remarry,his plan is to use her. A newspaper reporter in the U.K. discovers his plan. Several assassinations take place, a lot of political intrigue. What makes this mini-series so interesting is could such a thing happen? Well lets examine a little history. Europe. All the European countries have joined and become the E.E.C. Why not Canada,the U.S. and Mexico joining together to form a North American union. If this happens,it would be many years in the making. Another point of interest,the woman who plays the information officer for the White house,in some ways she reminds me of Condoliza Rice. At this time,only fiction,but very well done. Mary,who plays Mary Miller,Texas billionaire is in real life the wife of Paul Gross.
