wait and see

Alexander is Oliver Stones story, his epic, his baby. He has made it his own way, and usually Mr. Stone doesn't fail the audience. He has made some of the best and most controversial movies ever made; they have captivated us and made us think. I don't think he would give the audience a dud. Yes, Colin Farrell isn't the best choice but who else that young can play Alexander. The movie is visually amazing. Mr. Stone hasn't failed yet and it definitely won't be Alexander. Yes the movie is long and you have to be patient. But look at the story and think about the edge and idea the director and writer are trying to get at. This isn't a film about war; it is about a man and his faults, his curses, his trepidations. GIVE THE MOVIE A CHANCE
