Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

au561 If you're looking for a travelogue of the vast landscape of Russia, this is for you. If you're looking for an interesting story, compelling characters, or just a way to stay awake, this is not for you. 15 minutes of story about shallow people running around the Steppes for three hours.

wal-btr Dr Zhivago is not a hero and doesn't strive to become one. He lacks strong will and doesn't like to make decisions. He yearns for a life on his own terms as a physician and poet, and his childish innocence helps him get through the Bolshevik revolution. But the ruthlessness of history always seems to get to him, while he continuously tries to escape it. Unlike the opportunist Komarovsky who loves the pleasures of life, and the fanatic Strelnikov who is committed to his ideology, Dr Zhivago loves - as simple as that.

Miguel Neto David Lean directed the excellent The Bridge on the River Kwai, and the masterpiece Lawrence of Arabia (one of the best movies I've ever watched), and then made Doctor Zhivago, even being less than those two that I said, it is a great movie, a novel of good, I have never been to like romance movie, I enjoyed that, it's also drama and war is war scenes, which are good, the drama is also excellent, the cast is impeccable, Featured pro Omar Shariff this excellent, the direction of Lean is great, the soundtrack is very good, the costumes are impeccable, the picture is fantastic, Doctor Zhivago is one of the best decade of films 60, with romance, drama and war , not to mention the fine performances. Note 8.6

tavm This was the very last of the movies I watched on a Korean Air flight going home after so many years of only knowing it by reputation. It's pretty long (in fact, the longest of the films I watched on the plane) but it was mostly compelling watching from beginning to end almost non-stop (I only paused during mealtimes). Omar Sharif was quite the dashing figure here and his relationships with his wife, Geraldine Chaplin, and eventual mistress, Julie Christie, were both romantically compelling. I did wish more had been done concerning the Chaplin character but it was good for what she was given concerning her scenes. Rod Steiger was especially good as the complex villain who's not completely evil. And Alec Guinness's character does a good wraparound as one of the relatives of the leading character. By the way, this is so far the only time I've watched a David Lean film in its entirety so on that note, Doctor Zhivago was a mostly fine movie to watch.
