Are you Kidding me! Alexander the great was a big cry baby?

Rating: Null/10 (25 November 2004)

Although there are some factual events in the movie, I was totally mortified by how Phillip of Macedonia and Alexander the Great were portrayed. The relationship between Phillip and Alexander is ridiculous. Historically, Phillip had made Alexander a general in his army by the time Alexander was 16 years old. In the movie, their relationship is full of distrust and disrespect. How a great warrior such as Alexander the Great could be portrayed as a gay cry baby who was emotionally and mentally unstable, is beyond me. My wife and I kept wanting to leave, however, we stayed desperately hoping that it would get better...it only got worse. Very disappointed in the movie.
