[quote="qcarrWhat did you think of "Alexander?" I thought the costumes were good, the battles pretty well done and the acting not bad, but its omissions and the overall presentation were bad - contributing to its flop at the box office. Another project that fell short of its immense potential.[/quote]
I enjoyed it and I thought the producers had tried quite hard for accuracy. - Not hard enough for a real expert, perhaps, but certainly for a historically-aware layman like me. I've said before that I had a seat at the front of the cinema and this gave me a very realistic need to keep turning my head to see what the **** was going on in the battlefield "around" me. Cool!
