Critics
Critics of this television series have spanned a long spectrum of opinions. Some regard it to be a spectacular production with classic value while others have whiplashed the series for its "unrealistic" characters. The lasting selflessness of the hero Ivan, as well as the incidental innocence displayed by some usually clever characters, does justify such criticism. However, the story as a whole was written in the spirit of romanticism, and true artists have not been able to dismiss its complex but excellently written plot, considering its genre.

—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“Learn then what morals critics ought to show,
For ‘tis but half a judge’s task, to know.”
