Movie Reviews of Taras Bulba
Movie Review: Rousing, Moving, Brynner/Curtis Epic
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally, the much-loved version of Gogol's Taras Bulba has come to DVD. This grand, large-scale production manages to entertain with great action sequences while moving the viewer by telling the story of founded in love.
Taras Bulba, played by Brynner, is a great Cossack leader who fights with the Polish who continue to take more and more Cossack territory. His young son, Andrei, played by Curtis, is the only thing he loves as much as he does his people and his country. But when Curtis falls in love with a Polish girl, and sides with the Polish, he sets the stage for conflict and tragedy.
Bulba loves his son, his people, his way of life, and his country. Andrei loves his father, but also loves the Polish girl. In the midst of a great adventure story, Taras Bulba manages to be a story about love, and the great sacrifices and challenges love causes us to make.
This is a great movie, and very much deserving of a high-quality DVD release.
Movie Review: Put your faith in your sword and your sword in the Pole!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my all time favorite movies. Functions on three important levels. A powerful love story between Yul Brynner and his two sons, a desperate love story between one of his sons, Tony Curtis, and a polish noblewoman, all against a backdrop of steppes warfare. When all three elements collide, it becomes a haunting movie whose ending will have you in tears. Huge cavalry battle scenes-the best ever portrayed on film. Cossack brotherhood sworn to avenge the betrayal of Imperial Polish invaders, this is an adventure addicts delight. Waited a long time for this one, along with Solomon and Sheba and the great El Cid...Now where's Fall of the Roman Empire and 55 Days at Peking??Movie Review: Taras Bulba on DVD at last!!

Taras Bulba
For years, my brother & I would phone each other each time this classic epic movie aired on TV, to make sure that we didn't miss out on seeing it. I am so excited to finally have it on DVD! An all-time favourite - drama, betrayal, laughter, tears, love - a father for his sons, a man & a woman for each other, men for their country.
Movie Review: Taras Bulba
Summary: 5 Stars
Both Tony Curtis and Yul Brynner put in a great acting performance in this action film. Very interesting plot, plenty of villains and heroes and great action scenes. Rolling landscape and very cool costumes! This is considered to be a classic with good reason. This gets a strong recommendation for my money.Movie Review: Sentimental Journey
Summary: 5 Stars
Other than "The King and I", this is one of Yul Brynner's best movies. The first time I saw this movie, I was a young lad having some father to son bonding time. Three months later, my father died and this was the last movie he saw in a cinema. Thank you Amazon.
