Product description
Napoleons abduction and his exile to Elba: his dramatic escape, his reunion with his devoted troops and their generals. His last, desperate bid for ultimate power and glory, so narrowly defeated on the bloody fields of Waterloo. Waterloo is a film on an epic scale with a cast to match. Rod Steiger, Christopher Plummer, Orson Welles and Jack Hawkins all contribute fine portraits of great men against a magnificent backdrop of battle and bloodshed.

I had seen this movie in 1970 and was impressed, but have never seen it again on TV. So was keen to see it again and delighted to get it at a resonable price and in good quality. Thanks

I should imagine anyone prepared to shell out the asking price for the special edition already knows what a masterpiece Sergei Bondarchuk-directed movie Waterloo is. I also suspect a great many of those interested saw it when it came out in 1970. I had the immense good fortune to see it at the Gaumont Cinema, Birmingham in 1970. I believe it was the biggest screen in the UK at the time. A magnificent temple to cinema. Demolished by, as usual, myopic developers with their eyes on the present but not the future. "Be Here Now" is not always the best spiritual advice. Well, if you saw it then, you'll have wished for this release a long long time. It warms the heart that people have cared sufficiently to reveal the immense life and brilliance hidden in this movie. Everyone who participated in this mega-production deserves praise. Spectacle... Real speactacle. Excellent dialogue/acting based on the play The Dynasts by (if memory serves) Thomas Hardy plus added historical material from HAL Craig. Plummer's Wellington is perfect. Steiger's Napoleon immense on first viewing, with just a bit too much close, intense study. Some of the old flair of Austerlitz wouldn't have gone amiss. he sometimes seems to have escaped from an asylum, rather than Elba. Still, he was an older critter in 1815. But the greatest achievement is in the physicality of the overall direction. It doesn't matter whether you care a fig about the historical period (well captured with forgiveable historical gaffes), your attention will be held by this superb restoration. Get your more sensible friends to come and enjoy a film, the like of which will NEVER be made again. I mean "never" - like a loved one that's not coming back. Such was it to truly live in that terrible/amazing late Sixties period - not all bliss, but what transcendent AMBITION. waterloo represents ambition succeeding. I think I've written more than required to recommend this DVD. But no one else seems to have done, so this is for starters.

ONE OF THE LAST GREAT EPICS
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 June 2021Verified Purchase
One of the last great epics screened with a cast of thousands..
Have owned it on DVD for many a year, picture quality was pretty good so until now did
not see the need to upgrade, however, a limited-edition version of this classic in which Rod Steiger is outstanding seemed too good to pass-up on.
With a neat booklet filled with how the film was put together coupled with many a picture from the movie along with 3 double-sided post-card size collectables and a double-sided poster the package is good value for money.
The picture upgrade from DVD to Blu-ray also very good.
In April of 1814 'Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte' (Rod Steiger) has suffered his first defeat during the
Russian campaign.
Now four countries have committed their Army's to confront him on French soil, he is forced to accept
exile on the small Island of Elba in the Mediterranean Sea along with a relatively small force of 1000
soldiers, the following year he leaves the Island with his small force to invade his homeland.
King Louis XVIII orders one of Napoleon's former Generals to intercept and capture the former Emperor,
however instead of stopping him the force that was sent to stop him embraces his return.
'Napoleon' almost immediately considers the prospect of facing 'The Duke of Wellington' (Christopher
Plummer) who had been a thorn in his side before being exiled.
'Napoleon' plans to quickly defeat and drive back 'General Blucher's' Prussian army and the face a much
weakened 'Wellington' in battle.
A battle that neither side could afford to lose (Through History Generals have made fundamental errors
that have changed the coarse of History)
The story is told from both sides of the divide....
It is a truly glorious and brutal spectacle with the battle scenes shown in depth with well staged and brilliantly
filmed action.......The Battle of Waterloo' 18th June 1815
This surely one of 'Rod Steiger's' finest roles as the French Emperor' alongside the superbly performed role
as The Duke of Wellington' by 'Christopher Plummer'
Have watched this several times down the years, always time well spent in my view.

Just stunning
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 June 2021Verified Purchase
Some old films on Blu ray are like watching the film for a new and, this is certainly one of them. Colors, sound and picture are just gorgeous.
Plus the extras included are fantastic for any film collector, I can not recommend this enough.
It has always amazed me how underated a film this is. My kids will be subjected to it as I was as a kid and I just hope they grow to appreciate it as much as I have come to.

Best war film, a real 'desert island disc' for this reveiwer.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 March 2021Verified Purchase
First of all there is no longer cut of this film, or so it appears. The desire for there to be one reveals how loved this film is! This film oozes character and the interaction between visuals and music/effects has never been equalled in any war film in my opinion. Richardson in Charge of the Light Brigade, Kurosowa in Ran and even Bondarchuk himself in War and Peace come close, but no other war film has the inimitable character and sense of its own identity that Waterloo has. Some examples - the sunrise over the field, the massing of the French army, the review of the troops by Napoleon, the initial French moves towards Hougoumont, the final advance of the Old Guard, the sublime interaction of visuals, sound and movement in so many scenes are the work of a genius director, his cinematographer and music director. There are some bad moments of overdubbing, a smattering of abrupt cuts and inserts, but these do not mar the overall experience of watching this film. The blu ray transfer is excellent, the extras interesting, but it's the film itself that you are paying for here, and if hooked, you will watch it again and again. Here's hoping that Spielberg's 'resurrection' of Kubrick's Napoleon, if it is ever made, will measure up!
