Description: Considered the masterpiece of Russian director Sergei Eisenstein's career, Alexander Nevsky is a commentary on the mounting Soviet resistance to the Third Reich with a historical parallel.

"29.7. Julmetun upeasti kuvatun elokuvan propagandapuoli on niin vaivaannuttavan noloa paskaa, ettei tästä voi nauttia täysillä, vaikka visuaalinen anti on tosiaan erinomaista työtä. Massiivinen taistelukohtaus on mielipuolisuudessaan huikea, vaikka sen aikana soiva musiikki tuntuu joltain parodialta. Näyttelijät ovat oikeastaan ihan perseestä."

"29.4.12. TV Sergei Eisensteinin monien mielestä hienoimpiin kuuluva teos jätti ainakin minulle erittäin ristiriitaiset fiilikset, kun se Yle Teemalta tuli. Sanotaan nyt ne päällimmäiset kehut. Eisensteinin kuvaus on totta kai tajuttoman hienon näköistä. Saksalaiset ristiritarit ovat kaikessa yliampuvuudessaan ja julmuudessaan (vauvoja kokkoon!) anakronistinen, lähes surrealistinen näky. Elokuvan keskiössä oleva valtaisa taistelukohtaus on kerta kaikkisen häkellyttävää katselt"

"29.4. Voin erehtyä pahastikin, mutta jotenkin uskon tai vaistoan Eisensteinin pyrkineen selvästi syvempään sisältöön kuin pelkkään Stalin valtaa pönkittävään propagandaan. Tanakkaa patrioottisuutta riittää itse kullakin teoksen hahmoista, mutta mikä onkaan sen lopputulos? Tavalliset, mukavilta vaikuttavat ihmiset ovat "kunniakkaan" taistelun uhreja, aivan kuten nälänhätään ja terroriin johtaneessa vastavallankumouksen vastaisessa taistelussa konsanaan.
