Fortune Favors the Open-Minded.

Rating: 10/10 (2 December 2004)

The average male has problems with Colin Farrel portraying a Bisexual. Men who have problems viewing this subject are unsure of their own sexuality. It's that simple!
Moviegoers, this is a wonderful movie. It has it's flaws just like any other movie, but it is very entertaining. The Cinematography, story, acting and visual affects are top notch. Go see for your self. Two thumbs up to Oliver Stone.
I enjoyed Oliver Stone's version of Alexander's life. He tried to be historically accurate, telling us that Alexander was a complicated Uebermensch living a short life with amazing accomplishments. We were shown that his wars were gruesome. The battle scenes were just awesome, cinematography and costumes were outstanding. The acting was a little to melodramatic but it did not bother me.
I loved how he portrayed the Asian and Indian tribes. All in all superb although a little long. Anthony Hopkins as narrator was an interesting idea, but did not really add much to the story except that we learned some more background info. It gave the movie a touch of documentary what was probably intended by Stone. Enjoy the masterpiece..
