Reviews (2)
It's not the best series battle of all time, GoT holds that distinction, but even so, the Battle for Paris is very well shot, with some interesting moments and twists where the audience is worried about crucial characters. It's a bit reminiscent of Kingdom of Heaven in its concept, visuals and religious overtones.

The common use of crossbows in France is documented only from the year 947, while the siege of Paris occurred in the years 841-45, but that is my only critical note about this episode. Otherwise, it was a great event that I enjoyed the whole time. Until the sixth part, I had big concerns about the third season, but now the situation has radically changed.
