I suppose that's pretty epic with lots of cool CGI, but it's really just an unimaginative copy of Alexander Nevsky's "Battle on the Ice" with unmemorable music.

From a FNDP 10 months ago:

Perhaps the best fusion of film and music is Sergei Eisenstein's 1938 epic Alexander Nevsky with superb score by Sergei Prokofiev. The film reënacts the invasion of Russia by the Knights of the Teutonic Order in 1242, culminating with the battle on frozen Lake Peipus. The parallels between the 13th Century knights and 1930s Nazis are deliberate.

Here is the full 27 minute "Battle on the Ice".

It's terrific, but you should really watch it on a bigger screen. Here are some highlights:

The Russians wait for the Teutonic attack. Anyone who asks why they're wearing giant Hershey's Kisses as helmets will go to bed without dessert.

The Teutonic Order. They believe God is on their side. The charge begins. Excellent music.

The leaders of the Teutonic Knights. Awesome helmets! Why do the bad guys always get better costumes? Boba Fett's helmet is based on these.

On the other hand, Alexander Nevsky's helmet with the eye-shield is awesome too. When he pulls it down he's ready to rrrrrumble!

Keep watching. Note how the camera is on the Russian foot-soldiers but you can hear the pulsing music of the Teutonic horsemen.

At 6:20 the Russian foot-soldiers deliberately retreat to draw the Teutons into a pincer formation. Lots of nasty hand-to-hand combat.

The Russian flanks attack! Go Prokofiev!

The battle is turning. The bishop with the mitre is not happy with what he's seeing. Are those decorations swastikas?

The Teutons regroup. Maybe prayer will help. Look at the Teutonic foot-soldiers' helmets at 15:20. Look familiar?

The final rout begins. Careful! Thin ice ahead!
