it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

I have watched this series again a few days ago, and i must admit that it is still quite as good as it was when i watched it for the first time, that means on a small black and white TV screen when i was a kid maybe 30 years ago. There is adventure all the way, and the music by Vladimir Cosma is highly enjoyable and suits marvelously. He is certainly one of the best European film composer. The only thing that has suffered with the years may be the image, which is sometimes much too dark, and sometimes very pale... but well, what could be appreciated on a small black and white TV screen... What's interesting when you watch it now also, is that you now understand the plot, which was of lower importance it seems when you were a kid. Just like when you read Tintin comics. The influence of Verne on Herge appears quite clearly here (well, i'm not as brave as to read Verne's novels in order to check that up). The British reporter and his french counterpart remind me of the Thomson & Thompson duo too... pretty funny characters actually. Well... Anyway, to cut a long story short, 'Michel Strogoff' the series is highly recommendable. Attention les yeux!

the movie i've seen wen i was a year of 12 it was beautiful. the music also. but if i can get my hands on it with English or dutch subtitles i'm a lucky guy, but those stupid french people put every subtitle on but no English and dutch was it a great problem to put that on the DVD?????? i ask myself but maybe in the future it will be available. about the movie the actor Raymund is at it's peak performance. the music i can still recall from memory, great job Maurice . the cast is also well chosen.these 8 hours of movie are best spend time i've ever had with a movie it's a shame that's the DVD not lying in the stores ,while there's so much crap instead. i hope to see it again real soon on DVD.

I remember it as very exciting and strange, featuring a handsome hero with a secret mission in an old Russia threatened by Kozaks and frozen rivers, wearing woolly hats and serious faces. Recurring curious characters who were on the hero's side. All the while everybody is traveling to somewhere in Russia to do something of world-importance. As you may notice the details have eluded me. What's left are some images like described above, and a longing to see it again, slightly apprehensively because a re-acquaintance might prove disappointing.The DVD of (part of) the series is currently only to be found in French with no subtitling on Ebay or http://www.2xmoinscher.com/DVD/detail.asp?id=16410.

This film,Michel Strogoff mini series (1975), is one of the best films I have ever seen in my life. Tell you the truth, this film is my inspiration for writing stories. I would like to know, whether it's possible to order this film. Unfortunately, it seems that this film has not been released for sale. I would like to know, is it possible to order it. Thank you very much, Javid
