long, drawn out. not great.
I loved this movie it was amazing. It was one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. I went to see it twice thats how much I liked it and I am going to buy the DVD when it gets out.
An amazing film. Great directing, unbelievable acting, Colin Ferrall truely amazed me. Although there were a few scenes that disturbed some people, you have to keep in mind that Alexander the great was a bisexual, and this movie was just trying to recapture his life to every last detail. Overall an unbelievable film, Definatly Oscar worthy. 5 out of 5. WATCH IT !
Absolutely brilliant. The homosexuality was BARELY touched upon and can be easily handled by anyone with an open mind. Collin Farell justified the role as Alexander, and Angelina Jolie looked HOTTER than HELL (too bad she wasn`t in it aggressively). Nevertheless, moving dialogues, remarkable acting, and the honesty of the tale made Alexander simply inspirational, and sent chills down my spine. TOTALLY worth the money AND time.
The gayest movie ever made in the history of cinema. I`m an afghan n i know wat persian ppl look like n the culture too. first of all persian women n men. there have been no shemales in persia
Absolute groaner. Don`t go. An embarassment to any actor that appeared in this film. It will be a black mark on all who were involved`s resume. Scottish an Transylvannian accents? Don`t even wait for the video. Enough said.
One of the absolute worst movies I have ever seen. I thought the movie had no flow, lacked a great script and was confusing at some times. I thought there was too much emphasis on his sexual identity instead of warfare. You`d have to pay me to watch this again...
The movie was historically accurate as Hollywood would allow. Prior knowledge of Alexander`s life would made one appreciate the details and symbolism that Stone presents, the awkward pauses and silent tension truly depict not just the physical battles but the emotional strife Alexander experienced with his Macedonian countrymen. Far more than a blood and guts movie, an intellectual film that shows sometimes that greatest wars are not fought on a field but within one heart.
It stank... that`s right boys and girls: STANK! The movie was choppy and the interjected narrative bits really were more of a distraction than anything else. Save your money! If you think it`s a must see wait for the DVD and rent it for 5 bucks. You`ll be sorry you wasted a fin, but glad you didn`t shell out at the box office!
this movie is terrible... Bad dialogue, story, terrible cinematography, uninspired directing. I could not believe that Oliver Stone could have made this film. He was a master before this. It`s too bad for the actors also... Their performances where forced, but without the story being there, one has little to work with.
