Alexander the Way Too Long of a Movie

Rating: 1/10 (15 November 2004)

The battles scenes made the movie bearable, but it isn't anything people haven't seen before. If you want to watch a movie with battles in them I suggest Braveheart, Gladiator, or Return of the King (which also has a battle with animals very similar to elephants).
If you want to waste a perfectly good three hours of your life go ahead and see Alexander. The story doesn't focus particularly on one point of Alexander's life, but the whole damn thing and it just drags on and on and on. The audience is then bombarded with laughable dialogue (people at the screening were actually laughing at it and thankfully the score was so loud at some points you couldn't even hear what was being said). Several people actually walked out on the free screening. I just opted to take a nap.
