Description
Director Oliver Stone chalks up an ambitious entry on his biopic resume (past entries include films about Jim Morrison, Richard Nixon, and JFK among others) with this cinematic treatise on the life of the mighty Alexander the Great. Despite his young death at 32, Alexander packed some unimaginable conquests into his limited years by ruling over a huge chunk of the globe. Stone draws on a voice-over narration provided by Anthony Hopkins, whose character is named Ptolemy, to aurally depict some of the battles. Thus, Stone shifts the weight of the film to focus on the personality of Alexander (Colin Farrell), a man who is stricken by overwhelming personal insecurities that come in direct contrast to his bold achievements. Complex dealings with his mother (Angelina Jolie) and father (Val Kilmer) plague him, as does his turbulent relationship with his wife, Roxane (Rosario Dawson). His connection with his best friend, Hephaestion (Jared Leto), is ambiguous, with Stone touching on their vaunted homosexuality via some shared tender moments. As these personal battles are played out, Ptolemy fills the historic gaps in the narrative by charting the incredible conflicts that raged at Alexander's behest. Eventually, Stone lets loose with an epic on-screen battle, which sees Alexander's troops rumble across India in another country-conquering quest. But while his minions struggle, and Alexander demands success, it becomes clear that he is his own worst enemy. With the only real threat to Alexander coming from a tempestuous struggle with his own ego, Stone's summation of the great historical leader paints a picture of an embittered and solitary figure who was able to rule everyone apart from himself.

Editorial Reviews
The work of a first-rate filmaker who makes unforgettable images.
Newsweek

It's history set ablaze, livid with political intrigue, scandal and un-braked sexuality... deliberately over-the-top, over-rich, uninhibited moviemaking
Chicago Tribune

As one of the few movies around not pushing state-of-the-art animation or Jude Law, Alexander is a damn good date movie
New York Magazine

I have always wanted to watch this film since it was released. Partly because of the director is Oliver Stone, partly because of the topic. Then I came across of Troja what really disappointed me. Due to this fact, I was affraid of seing The Alexander, because it is almoust from the same era. I was affraid The Alexander would be just another American historical film as Troja was. However, it was not. Of course better directed, good camera, well played by all actors but mainly Colin Farrell. You really get the historical fact, so it is educative as well. I was just a little bit confused by the names sometimes and who was who, but it could easely be caused by the fact I am not a English native speaker. I mean the names were Greek but I still have troubles to keep the dialogs sometimes so the names were just something else extra.
Anyway, definitely higly recommended. It worth the money and the time to watch it.
