9/10
Excellent for what it is

Wow, so many negative reviews from the 'history experts of WWII'. Historical inaccuracies, so many things left out, subtleties missed, and on & on. How is it these brilliant minds seem to not recognize the whole point of this documentary: to restore and colorize archival film from the war to put together a reasonable (if simplistic) and engaging review of the war and to bring it to life again ( perhaps in a way it hasn't been done before except in fiction). That there may not be archival footage for many of the events left out or many of the subtleties should not be surprising. And what's up with the narration complaints? I honestly have no clue what these people are really talking about. I think that the average person with an interest in a more realistic view of the war will enjoy this. Post- grad history majors, perhaps not so much.
