Rating: 1/10 (17 December 2005)

Basically, this was 3 hours of watching the Gay "Mama's Boy" conquerer. This movie didn't focus at all on the complexity of the character, his "Greatness" as a military leader, his Conquests or even actual History. The focus was geared towards his relationship with his mother (I think completely embellished) and his gay lover. It needed to be more in depth pertaining to his campaigns and why he wasn't satisfied till he ruled the world. The battle scenes were interesting but didn't really explain how the victories were won. It was missing battles I consider crucial to history also. Even his battles with his nemesis Darius were kinda glossed over. Overall this movie just sucked. I was severely disappointed.
