Excellent try to bring out a controversy motivated Biography with poor research.

Rating: 1/10 (8 July 2007)

History is always written by winners. Worse case: history written in praise and/or intention to shape "goodness" of the hero.
Intentions were pure. But work? The intentions were two. 1. To put forward a controversy theory. True or not; no one can say, not even the director or writer. 2. Grandeur .
Points missed. Research or Persian culture, Indian culture, and history from the eastern side. Poor choices of costumes, selection of music without much research which sounded random. Ultra modern language usage (unavoidable, still could have been look up once before shoot!), poor combat research & landscape research and over emphasis on sexuality that even reflects on Alexander's character (with poor portrayal of Collin allowed by director).
Critic's CUT ;) : More Home Work could have been done on the creation than execution which have resulted in one of the great biographies told on screen.
