The battle of gaugamela is featured in the film
Aside from instances where the movie is the battle (waterloo, gettysburg, etc.)...
No, it isn't. A mix of all the main battles of the campaign is. It had a nice soundtrack though, so it evens out.
It's clearly Gaugamela and pretty accurately depicts it to boot. Name one thing about it lifted from Issus.
Master and commander, obviously

That scene shows at most 8 men at a time fighting, it's hardly a full battle scene. The focus is more on Pullo disobeying orders which is why he's sent to be killed later
Check out BBC's Copenhagen movie. The one with Daniel Craig and Stephen Rea
Barry Lyndon has pretty accurate warfare, they even take cover in forts when they're available instead of everyone always fighting in a line
wrong
Rome (HBO) was never about the battles so I wasn't that upset. Although I was pretty disappointed how they handled Pharsalus, although it seems like they learned their lesson and did a pretty cool-looking Philippi.
