Movie-Alexander

Wow...Alexander (2004) was a big movie. Big stars, lots of extras, big battle scenes, big director in Oliver Stone, about Alexander the GREAT, big special effects and LONG! You know what else was big...it was a big fat failure! Bad bad bad on almost every level.

Starring a terribly miscast Colin Farrell as Alexander, this movie seemed to have no life, no real emotion and was overacted to the point of ridiculous. Angelina Jolie played Alexander's strange mom, and she was almost decent. Anthony Hopkins was bad...how often can you say that? Not very!

About the only good thing...the only good things in fact, were Rosario Dawson's naked breasts...and to coin a Seinfeld phrase...they were spectacular! But that was five minutes of distraction from an otherwise painfully bad movie.

Look, you can forgive a small movie for not being so great, but because of the immensity of this one, with the cast and director and budget, it has to go down as a huge huge mistake.

Just a bad movie.
