Ok, on the surface casting Colin Farrell as one of the greatest figures in history may seem a bit tad of a stretch. Oliver Stone has the stones (no pun intended..ok..maybe) to pull this sort of thing off. You'll love it or you'll hate it but if nothing else seeing Chistopher Plummer as Aristotle and Anthony Hopkins as an aged Ptolemy is well worth the price of admission. Then again, the "love scene" between Farrell and Rosario Dawson is a money grabber for sure. Oh, and Angelina Jolie is there so there is some more dollars in the kitty and Vangelis produces some signature scoring work here making it well worth an evening date!
