About this product

Product Information

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.

    Excellent in most all respects. So few epics made like that anymore.

    A monumental achievement in film making; with excellent characters -- though a bit too many Greek names to try to keep track of. An engaging story based on fact. Everything was really above board. A few things that didn't sit well: the young Alexander with notable lipstick; the fact that Hephaistion was his male lover, and they never once kiss; the fact that Bagoas later shared his bed, but was far too feminine for my tastes; that Roxanne was more black, than middle-eastern exotic-looking. But all in all a very well made film, consistently engaging. And an ultimate tragedy, to win the whole world -- and yes the influence of that was outstanding to the culture of the known world at the time -- and end up not truly enjoying the greatness of his conquests.

    Interesting Movie about Alexander the Great

    This move has a great cast of actors / actresses. Angelina Jolie plays his mother is film and does a super job. The acting is great, the costumes are awesome and you will find it very interesting. Colin Farrel plays Alexander and Val Kilmer plays his father. Great movie to add to your collection.
