Alexander the person was great. This movie isn't.

Though the battles have the blood-and-sinew bravado you expect from Oliver Stone, this three-hour buttnumbathon is hamstrung by a hectoring grandiosity, not new to Stone, and a nod toward caution, which is.

This new set presents the film in great quality and comes with some fantastic special features, but it's doubtful that this latest version of "Alexander" is going to change anyone's mind as to the quality of the film itself.

A lunk-headed train wreck that looks like a tag sale in a 323 B.C. supermarket in old Peking.

For the lucky few that see this without ever having viewed the first cut, they may wonder what all the criticism was about in the first place.

Stone doesn't present characters that the audience can believe in, even for one moment, as representative of their historic roles.

Sluggish, unsmiling, and almost as limp as the feather fans with which our heroes are gently aerated on their trip to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

This is ultimately "Alexander" as written by Danielle Steele...

At a reported cost of $155 million, Alexander qualifies as a super-spectacle in every respect but one -- namely in its neurotic, confused and sexually ambidextrous hero.
