Customer Review: Ok I'm going to keep this short and sweet. Now, normally it is frowned upon to review a product on here without first watching/playing/reading the entire thing. However, with this I will make an exception. 'The World At War' is, as you would expect, all about THE war.. THE war being WWII. I was... more info
Customer Review: I have to admit this is the most interesting film I have ever seen in a long time.
although I was disappointed to see how short it was.

Customer Review: Has I said in the other review of his first DVD, he's very good at his job, and this is a very good buy. Buy both DVDs and you wont be dissapointed.
Customer Review: lest get something clear. this is about people. not the war itself. about peoples experiences of world war two. as they are all Americans then its starts when they join it. I am british and have no issues about it starting in 1939, hell for the Chinese it was even further back but thats another... more info
Customer Review: I have not bought the box set for the simple reason that I watched it with eager anticipation on the television only to be totally disappointed.
