Four hours! The first part with Caesar was pretty interesting. I loved how Cleopatra's tendrils slowly wrapped around him and turned him into her own personal weapon. She was a great tactician. Second part with Marc Antony was more of the same thing, plus a few underwhelming battle scenes, so it dragged tremendously. The movie regains its pomp and glory once Octavian enters Cleopatra's palace and learns of Antony's death. The subsequent monologues and a dramatic suicide scene really captivate.

There are but a few movies that instill the meaning of the words epic and monumental. Cleopatra certainly is among them.

This movie nearly bankrupted 20th Century Fox. I don't know what's more interesting, the movie or the story behind it. Anyway, this movie is a testament of filmaking. Imagine what it must have been like watching this in 1963. Even today the sets and costumes are amazing. No CGI - with the exceptions of probably some matte paintings everything you see was there when it was filmed.

It is movie history and should be viewed at least once althought I am sure todays generation of movie goers will not apreciate it much.
