Critics consensus

“Even at nearly three hours long, this ponderous, talky, and emotionally distant biopic fails to illuminate Alexander's life.”

While it's worth applauding Alexander for not making its legendary hero 100% hetero, there's nothing else to recommend about this stilted, tedious epic.

Though Alexander is emotionally and intellectually incoherent, it's the work of a first-rate filmmaker who creates unforgettable images...could any contemporary actor fill Alexander's globe-bestriding shoes? He remains beyond Farrell's grasp.

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