I am angry!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (6 December 2005)

"Alexander" is a great film!!!! Yeah, I'll say that loud and I'll say it proud! All the lousy reviews it's been getting makes me sick! And angry!!! I'm pretty convinced that it got such a horribly undeserved bad rap is because people were so antagonized by the homosexuality and homoerotic undertones in the film. Well, grow up, you immature homophobes!!! We're talking about historical accuracy here! And Alexander was bisexual. I'm sorry, that's just the way it was! Speculation doesn't run rampant in this film like it usually does in Oliver Stone's biographical films. I admired the historical accuracy of this film (and I should know, I have three Alexander the Great books). The acting of the entire cast was superb, but Colin Farrell's stood out. I never thought one way or the other about him before I saw this, but now I have great admiration for him as an actor. The fact that he wasn't at least nominated for "Best Actor" makes me so angry!!! And Oliver Stone should've at least been nominated as "Best Director." And the film at least deserved a nomination as "Best Film!" Reading these reviewer comments and seeing that I'm not alone in my assessment of this film makes me feel a little better. Thanks, guys. And Oliver Stone and Colin Farrell, you have my heartfelt sympathy and righteous indignation at the injustice done to "Alexander."
