a5c7b9f00b 'Alexander' traces the short, but adventurous life of the Macedonian conqueror, Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.), who conquered almost the entire known world of his era. From his childhoodthe son of King Philip, to acending the thrown at age 20 in 336 B.C. upon his father's murder, and starting in 334 B.C., Alexander crossed into Asia on his 11-year conquest of the known world. From his conquests of Egypt, to battles with the Persians and the capture of Babylon, operations near Maracanda and in Afghanistan, and pushing all the way to India where he reigned unchallenged before his sudden death at age 32. Though Alexander made use of the well-oiled army created by his father, he pushed the limits of Macedonian & Greek power to levels King Philip could not have dreamed of.
Alexander, the King of Macedonia and one of the greatest army leaders in the history of warfare, conquers much of the known world.
for a movie about a man who spent a good chunk of time conquering the known world it tends to focus on him being a flamer a lot more than him being a tactical genius. Even a man is not homophobic he will be naturally repulsed by homosexual behavior. The only people I've met that liked it were girls who love to watch guy on guy action. Besides all the homosexual behavior, the movie itself wasn't that great to begin with.<br/><br/>I've never really been a fan of Oliver Stone anyway, in case the summary doesn't clue you in.<br/><br/>Overall you can't really take my opinion to heart since I really really don't like Oliver Stone.
I saw a Free Preview last night, and it was really disappointing. I've heard people saying its good because its a different kind of Epic. One that doesn't focus on battles. But I found the battles to be one of the major problems. Each sequence was too long and shot like a Vietnam war movie. They almost seemed like they were from a different movie. The homosexual love story angle was poorly handled. Stone seemed to dance around it and not face it head on. There almost seemed to be a moral conclusion to it to appease the moral majority. <br/><br/>I also had a problem with the political message of the movie. Stone seemed to dance around this subjectwell. On one hand Alexander's great quest was to free the people of the east from tyrannical rule. While the narrator dismisses his this dream at the endfolly, then goes about revising his own assertion.<br/><br/>For Stone, who usually deals with issues head on, this was a bit of disappointment. He seemed to follow Alexander's battle strategy from the first battle. Distract the opposition with a head on blitz while the sneaking up on the target from the flank. Stone distracts the viewer with visual tricks and interesting editing choices (like the flash back in the middle of the chronological movie). While trying to out flank the issues. Unfortunately this tecnique works justwell for stoneit did for Alexander. Caught his foe (the point) of guard, just missed it and let it get away, while he regrouped to strengthen the main distracting force.
Alexander breaks the key rule that makes movies move: Show, don't tell.
Apart from Bagaos the Final Cut merely offers more detailed characterizations, deepening of the characters relations to each other and short impressions of Alexanders life often onlya commentary from the Off by Ptolemaios. On top of that, a healthy dozen of violent scenes have been re-integrated into the battle scenes that presumably had to to be cut for the Theatrical release, for they are a good deal more brutal than we are used from the rest of the film.The most obvious change is again the structure of the movie. The battle of Gaugamela has been moved towards the beginning again (as planned in an early version of the script) and is seen even before Alexanders childhood and adolescence. The events in Bactria have been reassembledwell. First we see the wedding with Roxane, then the movie jumps back to the discussion with the generals and the celebration before that where Alexander meets and falls in love with Roxane before the movie jumps back to the wedding night. All other changes from the DC are present in the FCwell. Again one can find a very detailed comparison between the Theatrical Version and the Final Cut with pictures here.<br/><br/>In 2014 there is one more cut called the Ultimate Cut that will run 207 minutes.
