Great Weak Alexander

Rating: 8/10 (25 December 2004)

I don't know why a lot of people against this movie. I'm surprise when saw its rating is 5.5. It's better than King Arthur, which rating is 5.9, 100 times. How about Troy? Alexander has a great battle. Troy's battle is just a big CG scene (look like we watch the Troy animation). Of course, Alexander is not great as I hope (and u too, right?). I really disappoint with Ptomely (Anthony Hopkins), who talks too much, talk and talk and talk, seem like Oliver Stone afraid that the audiences can't understand what he wants to show. But, Colin Farrell is great. He shows a weak side of Alexander so well and heroic side also. Maybe, when making a movie about a great hero, and that hero has weakness, like homosexual, cry so much and love so much, people think "Man, it's suck". I don't know. I think this movie is great. I know more about a life of someone who conquered the world. Someone loved and died for love. Someone that lonely...In the end, when Alexander died, his last vision haunted me. When i come back home, i still saw what he saw... This epic is the best epic of this year, to me!
