Movie Reviews of Fall of Eagles
Movie Review: Give Eagles a chance!
Summary: 4 Stars
When we began watching the Fall of Eagles, we were shocked at how boring it seemed. No flashy sets, no exciting music, no racy scenes: think new historical dramas like Rome and The Tudors.
Well things really pick up in subsequent episodes. If you give Eagles a chance, you'll become engrossed. For history buffs it doesn't get more fascinating than World War I, and this production dives into the details. The actors have to... act! Lenin, the Kaiser and Nicholas are real standouts. You'll feel like a fly on the wall watching events unfold.
If you are looking to make a "long-term commitment" to a worthwhile miniseries -- and don't mind learning something along the way -- you'll be satisfied with Fall of Eagles.
Movie Review: Fall of European Monachies in Early 20th Century
Summary: 4 Stars
Good review of the fall of the Hohenzollern (Germany), the Hapsburg (Austria) and the Romanov (Russia) royal dynasties and the turmoil of WW I. It focuses more on Lenin and Russia than what was happening in Germany and Austria. It attempts to cover more than what is possible in the 10 hours and 50 minutes (4 DVD discs) available, leaving much uncovered. Still, the acting is good and the story informative and interesting.Movie Review: Fall Of Eagles
Summary: 4 Stars
Movie was very well done. the people portrayed however, were insufferable twits (Kaiser Wilhelm), Idiots (Fritz Hohenzollern, Nicholas II) Also Power-Mad. Disconnected from the realities of the time. Though they claimed Divine Right to rule, they ruled as if they were gods themselves. Of all the persons portrayed, only Victoria and Albert regarded their position as a "trust," showing concern for their subjects.Movie Review: Fall of Eagles & the Great War.
Summary: 4 Stars
A very well done presentation of the 3 prominate monarchy's of the early 2oth Century and their effect on the events that lead up to the Great War. There was a great disconnect between the Royalty of that period and those events that were taking place before their very eyes. Supurb production. Excellent recreation of the period.Movie Review: Fall of Eagles
Summary: 4 Stars
Historic review of the Imperial ruling families of Europe before WWI.
A little overly dramatic at some points, but good if you need some study ethics.
