    Wellington's actor is so handsome, why is Napoleon a dead fat man? In other words, I always feel that this actor must have played Churchill because of his weight. My favorite is Ney. It was a nice fight, but it always felt weird to me that Wellington...

    speak up. There are many loopholes, perhaps because of the relatively early age. The scene where the XX led the cavalry to death in the underwear is very exciting, you can see the red phalanx being washed away in the bird's-eye view...

    In the real big scene, Western countries certainly don’t have so much money to make this, and it is estimated that only the Soviet Union can do this. Although there are some inaccuracies in historical facts, the war scene does look spectacular when looking down on it. I feel that the special feature of this movie is that Added a monologue to reflect the inner workings of the characters? Some emotional expressions feel too much, why would a soldier suddenly run out and say "We've never seen each...

    Only the war movies made by the former Soviet Union can satisfy me, another epic masterpiece made by the former Soviet state teacher Bondarchuk after the filming of "War and Peace". Although it can only be called a mini version of "War and Peace", nearly 20,000 Soviet soldiers were still mobilized to participate in the filming. The war scenes are grand and elegant, and the post-war hell is breathtaking. Napoleon lost not only a war, but also the future of France. Now that you are looking...

    The Battle of Waterloo was a rare instance in the history of warfare in which this battle was used to determine the final outcome of the entire battle. The director gave a panoramic view of such a decisive and crucial battle in a limited time. It is a pity that the hero is too late, and the genius of the sky has no power to return to the sky. The incomparably vast live-action scenes and group performances can be called a spectacle in the history of human cinema, and it will never happen again...

    Superstars gathered and the scenes were grand. However, the magnificent war scenes at that time did not use computer CG, and were all completed with real horses. This is what makes this movie amazing. Sergey Bondarchuk stood in the perspective of reflecting on the war, looking down at Napoleon and Wellington, a battle without a winner, and interpreting the familiar into a heart-wrenching...

    Even today, the filming techniques and narrative techniques are not unconventional, and the contrasting relationship between Napoleon and Wellington is quite successful. In the second half of the one-hour-long, panoramic presentation of the Battle of Waterloo, the look and feel is quite shocking. In the era of the big Soviet studios, the real-life effects obtained by investing all their money are unmatched by today's CG special effects....

    4.5/5 The soundtrack is awesome, the battlefield is spectacular, Steiger's performance is great, he's a little prejudiced to Plummer, his eyes are too wicked, isn't Bondarchuk a privilege? You can borrow anything from the Soviet military. people borrow...
