I want to see the reviewers that actually liked this movie

Rating: 1/10 (21 November 2004)

Marshall University had a sneak preview of Alexander, so I snagged some passes. What can I say? Very inexpensive date. What I found was a bloated, inane, indulgent piece of film, falling far short from Stone's talent and ability. The dialogue is stale, and at points, even laughable (especially between Alexander and his homosexual lovers, which critically hurts the film). Battle scenes are few and far between. Historical inaccuracies are abound (a Stone trademark), so much so that playing a game of Age of Empires would give you a better sense of history. And worst of all, the film is full of long winded monologues bordering on the Gods and Generals level of absurdity. Two positive things came out of the movie, however. 1. Val Kilmer actually acts in this movie instead of playing Val Kilmer playing someone else. 2. Rosario Dawson's fantastic body is confirmed. Avoid this movie at all costs, even if it is free.
