First, Let me explain why I gave this movie 1 star.
BECAUSE there's a clear statement: -Gay- is the same as -queer- and queer is the same as -pathetic clown-. NO Gay in this movie acts like the 90% of Gays in real life... NO ONE.
This movie portrays what the media systematically does when covering Gay parades and stuff... Drag queens, and the likes... So in essence it was a BIG disappointment to spend almost two hours watching how the Big-Straight-Boys make their point on accepting those f"gs.
However, though, some good jokes, and I get it is a (very) light movie, with one or two moments to have a good laugh... the great deal of them just a smile... and some others like... Hmmmm.... ???
SO, in essence, the time to make movies about gays being laughing stocks I believe is waaay over. It isn't funny anymore, and the people are more aware of the fact that being Gay is not being a stupid man that uses dresses and makeup...
Acting is ... well... what you would expect from a comedy... that's what you'll get.
...if you want to see un-lifelike movies, you better go to the Fantasy section... Much more interesting!

I'm not a critic and I believe THEY JUST CAN'T ENJOY ANY MOVIE. If you persevere you can find errors even on the CLOUDS!
Me, a simple guy who loves to see movies, can ENJOY them without having to criticize anything, Just "Sit and Watch". Can say I liked the movie... or I didn't... And that's enough.
For everyone belonging to this group, let me tell you, SUPERSTITION is a good movie, with that European feeling... Artistic, interesting, where you actually can use your imagination and be engaged with the story.
The intervention of David Warner (one of my favorite Actors) is a blessing to the cast. The leading roles are very well done and the supporting actors too.
Perhaps the use of a more "Hollywood-Style-use-of-Songs" are something that crashed on my brain, but nothing too serious.
Movies in which a big part of them are spent on the Court room are something many will like from this one, since that's because a paranormal event, the better.
The publicity tries to involve something more "Satanic", but that's wrong... paranormal has nothing to do with it.
Don't try to find something like "The Exorcist"... This one might be considered as: "The X-Files meets Carrie"
As I always say, NEVER back up any critic unless you have seen the movie. A decent effort well done.

First, let me tell you that I'm a rare person who loves Movies, but never goes to the theaters... I wait a little to buy the DVD, this said, I must comment that I saw Alexander, the Director's cut, so I never saw the original, but I always thought the movie was overly attacked and patiently waited to see for myself.
Now I can say that I was right, the movie is awesome, Acting is good, production is Jawdropping... I mean, these flaws are the ones people talked about and they are obviously in this version, and to be honest, this picture is as good to me as any other Oscar Winning production. It may be long, but for what I saw in the DVD it's well worth your money.
Immediately bought another five copies for gifts and to contribute Oliver Stone's cause... He deserves a Whole lot Better from us, you can see in the picture minute after minute his dedication and hard work... Who are we to deny that???
Finally, I can recognize a flawed work, bad acting and cheap effects, and if my opinion counts, let me tell you, Don't ever back up any critic unless you saw the movie... Sure, many of you don't... but then, why did the movie suffered such a financial crisis ?
The DVD is a great way to see long movies and this one is excellent !!!
Many other subjects are overly said and told, so here ends my commentary... Bye !
