From Amazon.co.uk

"A film that will never be equalled for its spectacle and dramatic power" says the stirring trailer on this otherwise sparsely featured DVD. Taking the story of the Napoleonic Wars to Bonaparte's final defeat, Waterloo is an unofficial continuation to director Sergei Bondarchuk's own 70mm super-epic War and Peace (1968). The climactic battle of Waterloo is shown in the second half of the film and re-enacted with such stunning realism by a cast of around 20,000 extras that it looks like documentary footage from history itself (some 20 years later, Gettysburg, 1993, did the same for the American Civil War). Those who hailed the groundbreaking impact of Saving Private Ryan should see Bondarchuk's films, as for sheer scale and intensity--if not bloodiness--they make Spielberg's hit look like an amateur video. Without ever attempting a French accent, Rod Steiger makes a commanding Napoleon, Christopher Plummer a worthy adversary as Wellington, while the supporting cast led by Orson Welles, Jack Hawkins and Virginia McKenna is excellent. The DVD transfer is richly detailed and clear, though the print itself could have done with just a little restoration. Though dated, Abel Glance's Napoleon (1928) remains definitive for many, perhaps explaining why Stanley Kubrick eventually abandoned his planned Napoleon film, instead making the 18th Century period epic Barry Lyndon (1974). --Gary S.Dalkin

This review is from: Waterloo (DVD)
i purchased this dvd and was surprised to find that i could not play it on a north american dvd player as it was formatted only for area 2( europe), north america being area 1. i was refused a refund because i had opened the package, but get this, i opened the package to view the film and when i inserted the dvd in my dvd player i was rewarded with this messagep" playback is not authorized in your region.
go figure the company " caiman " sells a dvd from europe to north american customers that can not be played in our area .

5.0étoiles sur 5 Wow!, Oct. 16 2009

This review is from: Waterloo (DVD)
You will never see another war movie...or any movie be that....with so many extra's in battle. Lucky there was a lull in the Cold War and the USSR provided the armies of Napoleon and Wellington. Excellent movie. Acting quite good - Steiger is a good Napoleon and Plummer pulls off Wellington with grace! The technical aspects of the film are great and the historical accuracy very good. I could pick out inaccuracies...but why? This is a film that is more than good enough on all aspects, well acted, and if you read or study nothing on that time of European history, you could do significantly worse if this is all you see or read. Get it....you won't be dissapointed. I have visited Waterloo and the movie although filmed in the USSR, is close to the real battlefield in looks.

3.0étoiles sur 5 IT'S BIG! REALLY BIG!! AND SO IS THE SWEAT ON ROD STEIGER!!!, Mars 16 2006
Par Un client
I guess I should begin by saying that I first saw this movie when I was twelve. it was on the Late Movie and I was big on anything to do with Napoleon. Looking back on this movie, considering the sheer enormity of its production and the size of the battle scenes, it must have been an incredibly exhausting effort to create this movie. However, nothing could equal the amount of sweat on Rod Steiger's brow throughout this movie. Steiger's Napoleon is complete in all his scene-chewing, sweaty glory. Steiger raving at the top of his lungs, "Where is Grouchy?! Where is he?!?! Do I have to do everything myself?!?!?!" Nothing is more exciting than seeing a Napoleonic ego (The size of Napoleon's no less.) get a royal bursting. About the only thing almost as big as the Battle of Waterloo was Napoleon's tantrums. It must have been a tough day for the General Staff, no doubt. Anyway, see this movie for its grand scope - it's so worth it.
