Rating: 4.0
Not Bad For a Brief Overview
Look, it is an hour long summary originally made for A&E Biography, so it is not going to be able to go into appropriate detail about a number of aspects concerning his life, his time in exile or the revolution and post revolution phase and death. That said, for a quick video introduction to the subject it is satisfactory. I have read quite a lot about Lenin and the Russian Revolution. I have even seen the Cat under glass there in Moscow. To do that history justice would require a multi-part series of some heft. That isn't what A&E's Biography was about when it was still in the business of doing Biography. If you already know a lot about Lenin then you can probably skip this one. If you think you might be interested in the history of Lenin, but do not know where to start, then it probably would be beneficial to check out this brief over view.
