Rating: 1/10 (9 March 2007)

For people who believe that his movie is good in any way, shape or form. You my friends, are wrong. I'm only going to address one very solid and monumental flaw of this movie. Oliver Stone did not portray the character of Alexander, or the Greeks one bit.
Alexander the Great conquered most of the known world at his time. This great warrior was not a man who would cry in the arms of another person in the eve of battle. He would of girded his loins and prepared for the shed of blood and cries of battle.
Oliver Stone only showed a coward who feared death. Not for the glory of the movie but to make people uncomfortable. This is why Oliver Stone road out the fact that the Greek culture was a sexually open culture, free to have sex with whomever they please. He drove this fact into the ground and beyond. You only saw them as lovers as boys when these frivolous men loved whomever they desired. Oliver Stone only pushed his own agenda and did not care for the reality which was Alexander the Great and the Greeks of his time.
