spare yourselves

Rating: Null/10 (15 November 2004)

Saw a screening of Alexander tonight and wish that I could have my 3 hours back. Worst movie I have seen in a long, long time. Perhaps if they're looking to make a grand entrance when this movie opens, they should stop previewing it. Honestly, don't do it. It's pretty sad that a group of decent actors couldn't pull it together... although maybe it wasn't entirely their fault. Oliver Stone may have hit rock bottom with this one. You'll probably find yourself checking your watch every few minutes for... oh... the entire second half of the movie, as the first half alone felt like 3 hours... And lastly, I wasn't alone on this one. There were about 1,000 Ivy League students who agreed with me, based on their reactions to various scenes throughout the movie. Save your time and money, go to McDonalds, watch Gigli, do anything but see this movie.
