Alec B A truly breathtaking epic and not just for the immense scale (seeing literally thousands of extras on screen is something to behold) but also because of how well the movie captures the characters and their shifting perspectives. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/24 Full Review Jan K A Bondarchuk Soviet masterpiece. Faithful to the book, it is splendid in its representation of both the interactions and movements of the Tzarist aristocracy - as well as the epic, unrepeatable battle scenes with over 10.000 Red Army extra's. Only the soft-spoken Russian can convey the drama's romanticism, that contraposes Tolstoys contemporary realism and history-critical position. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/15/23 Full Review David B Astounding in scope. Powerful narrators' thoughts - especially on death. Trivializes 99% of industry's output. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/17/23 Full Review s r Epic. I saw this because it was recommended by a Stanford professor who said it was his favorite movie since it was the most accurate depiction of war. HR McMaster also recommended it, so I gave it a shot and was not disappointed. Amazing cinematography and faithful to the novel. Really a first class production that is most likely the finest quality film made in Russia. It was on HBO and youtube.
