1. Alexander The Great
This movie is historically inaccurate because it dramatizes events that are not that important and gives false information about them. In other words, the director of the movie purposely changed big parts of the actual fact to please the audience's expectations. Moreover, almost every place shown in the movie (such as houses, palaces (palace complex at Persepolis), lifestyle) does not matches with the actual facts and evidences from that era which is again designed/inspired by modern art that the director of the movie allowed in order to fascinate the audience. For example, Pella mosaics decorating the palace walls of Alexandria or the lighthouse which was made after the reign of the first Ptolemy. In other words, it never existed during his reign so should not have been featured in the movie.

Although the Spartans are known for being the most courageous and strong soldiers, it would have been impossible for any soldier to
go to battle without wearing any sort of chest protector. Not to mention that the Spartans had their own army "clothing/Uniforms" which they specifically designed for protection.

Alexander the GReat never built a temple dedicateds to Luna which is the Roman Goddess of moon because Alexander was Greek (Macedonian). As matter of fact the Greek equivalent for this temple would a temple dedicated to the Goddess Selene. But no such temple was made by Alexander the Great. Moreover, there are no evidence that shows a sign of an earthquakes in that area in 330 BC. Evidence shows that there was an earthquake in the city of Helike, Greece, around 373 BC.
Helike is between Delphi and Mycenae
