I just saw Alexander. It wasn't nearly as bad as everyone (including the girl at Blockbuster who said "Do you REALLY want to rent this??) made it out to be. It was a bit dry, and all the Macedonians had British accents (except Angelina Jolie, who I thought was actually pretty weak and I dunno WTF kind of accent she was supposed to have), but the visuals were really great, especially the battle with the elephants, and the story itself was interesting, if a bit drawn out. I'd say it was pretty average. 2.5/5 stars.
