Terrible

Rating: 2/10 (27 August 2005)

One of the worst movies that I've ever looked forward to seeing. I was horribly disappointed, but had such an interest in the story that I watched it a second time (I walked out the first time). CF was way out of his league here, and at no point in the film did I feel that this was a man who would lead hundreds of thousands of men to their deaths. Leto puts in an excellent performance, and Joile is gorgeous as usual. Surprised to see Kilmer so underutilized in his role. The less said about the editing the better. A visually stunning epic, Alexander is eager to please, but falls well short of the mark. It had so much promise...
