Boring, boring, boring.

Rating: 1/10 (29 December 2004)

The title of this movie should not have been Alexander the Great. It should have been Alexander the Boring.
3 hours of boredom is what one gets when watching this movie. I thank the gods that Alexander died at the age of 32 and not of old age. Lord knows how long the movie then would have been.
There is no chemistry between Jolie and Farrel whatsoever, the combat scenes were chaotic and strangely bloodless. Everyone knows that Alexander were indulging in homosexual relationships, but there were no need to spend so much energy trying to portray that. I would have liked it better, had Stone chosen the path of Troy, where it was insinuated and nothing more. This is my opinion, mind you.
Not a movie worthy of Stone.
It is by far THE worst movie I have seen all year.
