War and Peace - Tolstoy

I enjoyed the first 2 films. Then came the battle in the third film. I realise that it portrayed the futility of war, and also the chaos, but after the first 10 minutes I got it, and the rest of it was just more of the same with strident music that nearly drove me round the bend. The last part also wasn't nearly as interesting as they could have made it. (BBC version) It may be a classic, and it is definitely dated. Time for a remake? How about a matrixified war and peace?
