A masterpiece for the enlightened.

Rating: 10/10 (4 January 2011)

For me, those who have been negative about this film lack an appreciation of art and understanding of history (I was once like you but have since thankfully been enlightened). If you knew the history of this period then how could you not love this film? It is one o the most faithful biopics ever committed to celluloid and deserves to be praised for the masterpiece that it is. I believe ten years from now Alexander will be appreciated much more and be hailed as a triumph. Even though it took me a few years to acknowledge it, Alexander is without a doubt one of the greatest epics of all time and deserves to be respected. Colin Farrell feels he needs to apologise to anyone he meets in case they've seen the film and went through a massive depression after it flopped as he put his heart and soul in to it (as can be clearly seen). I find this very sad considering it's the greatest performance of his career.
