A good movie

Rating: 9/10 (17 January 2005)

Too much history for 3 hours of movie. It might be right that Oliver Stone has focused some aspects of Alexander, such as his bisexuality or his apparent weakness that are not as relevant as other aspects of his personality. Nevertheless I think this is a great movie. Good performance from Collin MacFarrel, Angelina Jolie and Val Kilmer. Anthony Hopkin's performance is good as usual. I am still impressed by the effort of Mr Stone to show in the 3 hours movie the complete story of Alexander. If I had to highlight something of the movie it would be how well is described the complicated relationship with their parents. Well done Angelina, I didn't expected such a good performance as Olimpia.
