Movie Reviews of War and Peace
Movie Review: A timeless classic
Summary: 5 Stars
War and Peace is without a doubt, a timeless classic. We chose to obtain this version to share it with Katya and Nadya, young adults who are now studying this period in history.
This Tolstoy's classic is wonderfully played by Audrey Hepburn as Natasha, a young woman who experiences the hardships of war. Henry Fonda provides a great performance as he lives through and observes Napoleon's invasion.
The Russian General, who retreats, and refuses to engage in battle, waiting for the winter to become his ally is superbly played and provided a chance to discuss strategy and books, such as the Art of War. The insight gained was excellent.
The battle scenes leave a sense of desolation, and as Napoleon retreats, we were able to discuss how Russia has benefited from a harsh winter as the defense against intruders.
Highly recommend watching this film.
Movie Review: FIRST CLASS
Summary: 5 Stars
Wonderful film, clearly carefully cleaned-up from the original (referring only to the viewing quality! The only thing a young child's parents would balk at him/her seeing is the violence: mild by today's standards however). Delivery fast, as usual, and well packaged. I shan't sell this copy back to Amazon, I want to keep it to re-play whenever I feel like it. Great stuff.Movie Review: One of the signature classic movies of all time!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best books ever written made into one the truly signature classic movies ever made! Henry Fonda, Audrey Hepburn & Mel Ferrer (who just passed away at the age of 90) make a stellar cast, and while its a long movie, its a movie I love to watch again & again!
This is a movie worth owning, I promise!!
Movie Review: Still The Best
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an appeal to Hollywood, if anyone's listening.I first saw this film in 1956, when it first opened in the UK.
I've seen it several times since, but all I can get here across the pond, is a second hand video at an extortionate price of nearly £ 40.
Please can we have it on DVD? SOON!
Movie Review: classic
Summary: 5 Stars
this is a classic movie. They don't make them like this anymore. If you like classic movies, you will enjoy this one. Don't be thrown about the title. This is not a war movie. There is some war parts in it but it is more of a love story during the French invation of Russia.
