CGiii Comment

It really is that terrible.

$150 million - spent on make-up, really bad wigs and a trainload of old sheets.

And, it still looks cheap.

Lusty stares at nubile boys - seemingly, this alone satisfies Alexanders' gay appetite, there is the odd wee kiss and cuddle...nothing to raise an eyebrow.

Everyone is Irish - except for Jolie...who sounds Russian.

A bomb in every respect.
