Polish war film about the 1920 battle against USSR for Polish independence - Battle of Warsaw review by PV
All about the battle in 1920 to defend Poland against the USSR and so retain its independence. Also references Kiev and Ukraine.
Interesting enough as seen through the eyes of a young soldier, with all the fog of war and confusing loyalties. But it does drag on rather, with endless 1920 battle scenes.
Probably a smash hit in the UK around 2011I think, as stated on the sleeve, due to the Poles in Britain going to see it.
Very dated to my eyes really. I would have given 2 stars for that but it just about makes 3 stars due to some great battle scenes.
