Artistic Hogwash

Rating: 1/10 (25 February 2006)

Bottom line of this movie is Don't Bother... it is neither "historically" accurate, nor "culturally" accurate... in the Anthropological end, Alexander had NO purpose, no world vision, and NO scorching "cause" to battle for...
This is not to mention the massive confusion you will experience as to separating Persia, Babylon, Assyria, Macedonia, and Greece in a stew of inaccurate time periods for the sake of "continuity"?
Alexander's TRUE story would have been far GREATER, and shorter.
Other than some of the lavish sets, the rest is pure Hollywood amusement with stifled acting and poor character development... served to you at YOUR expense.
