Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very good movie , clear cinematography , good acting , awesome locations and great scenes

I enjoyed the movie very much it was quite an eyeopener

I enjoyed the movie even though it got bad reviews.

I thought the movie was boring. I bought it because it had movie cash on it.

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A OLIVER STONE FAN AND THIS WAS GREAT. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT WAS NOT WELL RECIEVED AT THE THEATERS. THE LENGTH OF THE MOVIE MAY BE LONG FOR SOME, BUT TO TELL THIS STORY AS HE DID - THE TIME IS GOOD. THIS MOVIE SHOWS A TRUTH, THAT THERE WAS FEAR BEFORE BATTLES AND THAT ALEXANDER DID GO TO BATTLE WITH HIS TROOPS AND NOT JUST TELL THEM WHAT TO DO - HE WAS WOUNDED SEVERAL TIMES DURING BATTLE. THIS IS A WONDERRFUL WAY TO LEARN MORE OF HISTORY THAN JUST READING. THE HISTORY COMES ALIVE AND FOLLOWS WELL. ALEXANDER'S VISION OF EXPANDING TO THE EAST AND SEARCHING TO THE GREAT OUTER SEA IS SHOWN WITH ALL THE HARDSHIPS THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN ENDURED. THE PORTRAYAL OF ALEXANDER IS SHOWN AS TRUE TO HISTORY - HIS HUMANITY WHERE HE GAVE TO HIS MEN AND WOMEN, AND TO THE CULTURES THAT HE OVER TOOK; HIS PERSONNAL RELATIONSHIPS (LOVE INTEREST) BOTH MEN AND WOMEN. THIS MOVIE FOLLOWS HIS LIFE FROM A YOUNG BOY TILL HIS DEATH, IN A REMEMBERANCE FORM AND GIVES A REASON TO THE HOW'S AND WHY'S OF HIS ACTIONS THROUGHOUT HIS SHORT LIFE (33 Y/O). THE PERFORMANCES BY COLIN FARRELL AS ALEXANDER AND JARED LETO AS HEPHAESTION ARE UNPARALLELED.

This is a great depiction of the life and times of Alexander the Great, my wife and I love it! It's brilliantly directed by Oliver Stone and Colin Farrell is outstanding as Alexander. It has a great cast including Angelina Jolie, Val Kilmer, Jared Leto, and Anthony Hopkins. Oliver Stone does a great job of making his true story films as accurate as possible, (just like JFK, The Doors, Nixon, etc.) This version of the film is the best and most complete. I highly recommend this film! Also, some other great films that are similar are Gladiator, Troy, and Kingdom of Heaven.

bluray version is stunning, makes the movie more enjoyable to watch in high def

sorry to say it but this movie didnt do it for and im really being nice by giving this movie 2 stars horrible story horrible acting this movie just didnt do it for me i thought the directors cut would help but no it didnt and i know they just rerelased a new version and i wont be surprised that that version is any worse then the directors cut

Horrible movie. Ollie Stone re-writing history again. Overlong and terrible acting by Colin who is usually much better than this. Val Kilmer is the only good thing in the movie.
