Better go back to Vietnam movies

Rating: 3/10 (10 January 2005)

In my opinion this recreation of Alejandro Magno (Alexander) is disrespectful with this legendary hero. It presents a weak, mother dependent and sometimes stupid Alejandro (historically known for his incredible intelligence and courage). Numerous homosexual references during the movie shine as the main signs of his character, as if his sexual choices were the most important facts of this great man's life. One of the greatest contradictions of the movie is the character played by Anthony Hopkins who constantly tries to stress how great was Alexander in every of his comments, but then the reality shown in the movie dramatically contradicts this view. Why was he called Alexander THE GREAT? Hopkins repeat it constantly but the movie completely fails trying to show it.
I think Oliver Stone should go back to making movies about Vietnam.
