...I wasted my money.

Rating: 1/10 (24 November 2004)

I'm sorry if you liked Alexander, I really am. I am a guy that went to the movie thinking, like most other guys, it would be something like Gladiator. I was wrong. After one battle scene, that took forever to get to, nothing happened. Well, I'm exempting the fact that the story would be going along then a gay reference would be thrown in. I mean come on the guy was gay we get it, don't throw in a he-she every few scenes... I only stayed hoping, telling myself that there was going to be another battle pretty soon, because it was made to look like that from the trailers. But nope, I was dissappionted again. And it is THREE HOURS. That is important to know, because after two hours and your legs start to go stiff and your butt hurts. After that you will know that it wasn't worth the money you paid.
I would have to say that there was too much gay, not enough fighting for a "war epic", too long when it could have been a lot shorter, and most of all, been more actual movie than ongoing conversation.
And a tip to those who are forced into going by a girlfriend or family or are just going because you have nothing better to do, I would highly recommend a cell phone with games or a cd player and pillow.
