Oliver Stone should be imprisoned for creating this film...

Rating: 1/10 (22 September 2005)

On one hand you can have a film like Troy. On the other hand, you can produce one of the worst films in history and call it "Alexander"... The only thing worse than making a really bad film, is making a really bad film that lasts three hours...
To be honest, it isn't the fault of the actors. However, the script is patchy and the plot jumps over vast, and important, aspects of the life of Alexander. It appears that the film attempts to make up for this with battle scenes that drag on forever and really aren't that interesting; the time would be better spent giving the viewer a more informative picture of who Alexander really was. And the portrayal of the main character was incredibly weak. It isn't an issue to show his homosexual tendencies, but in general Alexander is portrayed as something of a weakling. I highly doubt that someone as weak and soft as the character portrayed in this film could have conquered the known world.
Otherwise, watch out for the (countless) moments when you'll simply want to throw up because the film is so bad...
