While I have no plans on seeing the movie, this review of Alexander in the Marin Independant Journal has probably cemented my resolve not to go. The reviewer don’t mince words when describing how much he hates this film.

“Alexander” takes one of world history’s most interesting characters and tabloidizes him with speculation on his sexuality and whether he actually was the god that he claimed to be. Like the egomaniacal rulers of old, the film is far more concerned with the legend of the man than it is with the significance of his accomplishments.

Read the entire review yourself for a good chuckle.
