Review of Waterloo (1970) by Wyatt C — 28 Feb 2013
I did not like the whispers where they were talking in their head. It was not adequately presented in my opinion by whispers.
Also I felt as though the actor playing Napoleon didn't look anything like Napoleon. He was too old and not good looking enough.
I was surprised by seeing actors like Christopher Plumber and in this film.
I'm not a fan of the camera cenophotography in this film.
I hate the music in this film. It does not match the film.
I don't like how oftentimes camera changed spots during action scenes. I wished that it stayed in spots longer.
I also did not like the high speed scenes when the French calvary was going after the British mainly because it was out of place during the film, it went too long and the bad circus musical score did not match the film.
One thing this film did succeed at was showing the eminence size of both armies, the patriotism and nationalism which the French people had towards Napoleon. I thought that this film did adequately represent some of the battle tactics.
