Heaven and other epic feature films of similar length have the same strong cast, but this one is compared by those two in terms of entertainment and integrity as a movie. Lemmy's narration, the time and place that flashes from time to time, and even a half-time break are actually nothing, but the biggest problem is that as such an epic war film, and it's also about Alexander, there are only two war scenes, Although the restoration of Darius, Alexander himself, the companion cavalry, the Greek phalanx and the Indian war elephant is very good, but in the remaining three hours of literary drama, it is too little. Of course, several hours of character monologues and dialogues Among them, there are not a few philosophical and profound ones. When they are extracted, they are completely superb historical works, and I also have a lot of thoughts from them. It's a pity that this is a commercial film after all. Not only ordinary audiences can't understand such a complicated literary drama, but for interested audiences, it must be extremely boring after watching the film for three consecutive hours. That's why, this film basically It is a postscript to Troy, but it is far less than the length of the film, but Troy, which is very popular, can attract attention. Let's talk about some advantages other than literary drama. The acting skills of the actors are all in place. Colin Farrell is strong but reveals the fragile Alexander, Julie's sinister and complicated Queen Olympias, and Kimer's manic and witty Philip II. , and the generals who were indistinguishable but showed their emotions well. Of course, the voice of Ptolemy (Hopkins) as the narrator was very good. Moreover, the Macedonian Arena, the Lighthouse of Alexandria, the Gate of Babylon and other exquisite interior designs are also quite a surprise. I, a fan of classical civilization, like it very much. In addition, the photography of this film is very good. The shaking, illusory, clear and sharp are exactly the reflection of the characters' mood. Therefore, the artistic attainments of this film are still very high. If the editing is handled better, it can be completely changed Oh's. Let's talk about some of my understanding of Alexander in the movie, but only in the movie, not in history. After all, the movie is another presentation and understanding of historical figures. The film tells about Alexander's legendary and short life from four emotional lines and two story lines, namely: Alexander's relationship and influence with his parents, his ideals for the world, his relationship with his subordinates, and his own demons. The line is his early family conflicts and his later conquest of the world. For the family line, in simple terms, it is a manifestation of Alexander's life: his father was influenced by his grandmother, hated his grandfather, fought, and finally was debauched and suspicious, and was murdered - Ya The same is true of Alexander. His father taught him the meaning of conquering the world and his subsequent responsibilities, which became the driving force for him to move forward. His mother taught him hatred and struggle, but it created his suspicious and fragile heart. Therefore, Alexander is not really a strong person. Man, as in the opening quotation, "flees far away" in order to escape from the past and the known life, and insists on coming to the end of the world, but he does this on the condition that he has a strong army, and the soldiers of the army , but only wanted to go home and gain wealth. This was the contradiction between Alexander and his soldiers. As for the commander, Alexander's ideal was to change the views of Aristotle and other Greeks on the East, and to pass on the glory of Greek civilization to the East. "Barbarians", insisting on building a unified and equal empire, what a noble ideal! His generals did not think so. They believed that the barbarians were destined to be killed, and they still retained the idea of repaying the shame of the Greek-Persian war and beating the Persians. No doubt they could not understand Alexander. After Alexander married an oriental bride, the contradiction intensified. , they rebelled and provoked Alexander, and Alexander was only a mortal after all, but at this time, he no longer had the confidence and trust that he had before the war. He was corrupted by debauchery and became a "tyrant", killing his subordinates and finally being killed by his subordinates. sad. Regarding the sudden death of Alexander, perhaps it is as Philip II said: We fear God because we are afraid of God, and what is God afraid of? Titans, Zeus killed his father Cronus and sprinkled his blood to the whole world, hoping that he would not be resurrected, but he did not know that these blood had penetrated into the hearts of human beings, and there will always be brave people who stand Rise up, conquer his fears, become like Titans, dare to rebel against God or known values, therefore, God must deprive these people of love and peace, and make them live and die tragically, no one trusts, Herak Reese, Achilles, Alexander, it's all like that, I'd rather not be a Titan. Finally, let’s talk about the echoes of the two wars in this film. Once, in the face of the Persians who were several times his own, Alexander used his morale and courage to overwhelm the Persians. He rushed to Darius alone, causing Darius to retreat. But in India, facing unknown tactics (war elephants, red-eyed Indian soldiers, archers in the trees, and bad weather), Alexander rushed to the Indian king again, but fell down. It is impossible to conquer nature and the manifestation of everything. Conquer your fear! I can't understand Alexander. After Alexander married an oriental bride, the contradictions intensified.
