Don't bother if you like good movies

Rating: 1/10 (28 November 2004)

I'm not sure what Oliver Stone was trying to say with this picture but in trying to do something different all Stone wound up getting was a mediocre film at best.
The plot is chopped up and hard to follow, Stone re-writes history at will, he skips over events that made Alexander and led to his being called 'The Great', the movie stalls on trying to mold the relationships of the characters and to the point where it doesn't even make a good chick flick. And the events that the show does touch on that were a very big part of Alexander . . . well that's all Stone does is just touch on them like some sort of 'honorable mention'.
If you like good movies, take my advice and save your money and go see a good flick. This one doesn't even rate as a 'B' flick.
