A great old movie, lot's of historical inaccuracies, but fun none the less. A source for many great comments to use joking with friends.

The best part of the film comes early on, in the sequence (and supporting score) "The Ride to Dubno." The building music and imagery of the Cossacks riding in from all directions to join the central figure of Taras Bulba serves to transform the screen from an intimate and rather forlorn depiction of a father and his sons leaving their homestead to the sight and sound of an unstoppable horde of savage light cavalry sweeping across the steppes. The price of the DVD is justified by that sequence alone.

After being taken in by other reviews, I was disappointed to find this a very thin plot and rather poorly executed drama. I couldn't much care for the downtrodden Cossacks or allegedly dastardly Poles... Stick with the same named character "Taurus Bulba"... from the Darkwing Duck Cartoon Darkwing Duck, Volume 1!

An oldie that just came out on DVD with outstanding cinematography, excellent acting with Yule Brenner as Tony Curtis' Cossack father. Plot is predictable but the views and action scenes make up for it.

No doubt "Taras Bulba" starring Yul Brynner and Tony Curtis was a great action and historical film. Also no doubt that the fight between the Polish Imperial Crown vs. the Cossacks was a commendable and patriotic cause for the mostly Ukranian Cossacks when Kiev, Ukraine was a Polish city. However this story creates a perception of an abusive giant vs. the small Cossacks representing the underdog. Although part of this maybe true, the fight between the vastly smaller Poland vs. the Ukraine and Russia of gigantic proportions not to mention its superior numbers in population, armies, both Cossack and non-Cossack is as realistic as a fight between a midget and colossal giant. And there is no way "the midget", no matter how "imperial" he may be is going to win the fight at the long run simply due to the fact that the smaller in territory and population, Poland vs. Russia the former will always be vastly outnumbered by the latter. Whenever the latter was the loser and it did happened a few times in history, is because they did not want to pursue that particular war any further and let it go as it was for the time being. Just do the math. Other than that its an excellent action film, very well acted with excellent color and impressive scenery and plot.
