Overall rating: 2 out of 5
from 8 members

Collection of documentaries on the three most influential figures in the Russian Communist Party that ruled over the Soviet Union for much of the 20th century. Valdimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky were the men who helped steer the Communists to power following the overthrow of Tsar Nicholas II in 1917. However, a difference in opinions saw Trotsky exiled to Mexico, where he was murdered in 1940 on the command of Joseph Stalin, the successor to Lenin as Communist Party ruler and the man responsible for the Great Purge that resulted in the deaths of millions.

Oh dear !

[Highly rated reviewer]

All three of these documentaries are so poorly presented that it seems an entire waste of plastic making them. When you have seen a documentary from the BBC or such like you finish it with more knowledge than you had before you watched it. Not so with these. The one concerning Trotsky has such a rushed voice over which is obviously being read from a script, that it may just as well be in Russian for all you can learn from it. It's a large subject to cover in such a small time but nevertheless these documentaries are abysmal. Pick something else and do not waste your time or electricity watching this rubbish.
