Indeed, in 1992, it was the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus so, obviously, the studios wanted to cas... read more

" The other Christopher Columbus cantered film from 1982, this one attempted to be somewhat closer to what happened, with Columbus depicted as being flawed, but still somewhat “heroic”, and the voyage being doomed from the start. However, many took issue with the movie, and suggested by making Christopher Columbus flawed but somewhat “heroic”, they ignored the fact that Columbus wasn’t heroic, but a man more interested in glory and fame, at whatever the price. Even the genocidal destr"

"17th of March, DVD Vangeliksen huikea tunnusbiisi oli pitkään ainut asia, mitä ylipäätään tiesin tästä ja 1492 onkin turhan vähälle huomiolle jäänyt historiikkielokuva siitä, kuinka Kolumbus purjehti Atlantin yli ja löysi uuden mantereen. Eihän tämä todellakaan Ridley Scottin parhaimmistoa ole, mutta on suurimmalti osin suurelle yleisölle suunnattua viihdettä, josta joko pitää tai ei. Gerard Depardieu on ilmiömäinen nimikkoroolissaan ja Vangeliksen omaperäinen musiikki "
