    Given such astonishing material, Ken Burns — of all people — feels the need to hype it up. The temptation is understandable. The giving in to it is not. The first rule of nonfiction, on screen no less than on the page, is you trust your material. .... To the extent “Leonardo” shows us the results of that seeing, it can be transcendently good. To the extent it distracts from those results, it’s another departure for Burns: a real disappointment.

    Leonardo Da Vinci breathes new life into the artist’s legend; Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon have painted a pretty complete picture of a man who was much more than the sum of his most famous works.

    A project that isn’t really enlightening about da Vinci as a person, but explores the polymath’s intellectual and artistic processes in a way that’s effectively cumulative and often fascinating.
