1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, July 17, 2001

By 

"hoomant" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Battles That Changed World: Greek-Persian Wars [VHS] (VHS Tape)

In the introductory comments, the narrator starts off by saying how this video chronicles the battles between the "civilized" Greeks and the "savage" Persians (Iranians). The same Persians, mind you, that at the time of the battles ruled most of the civilized world under the auspices of the first human rights doctrine in documented history. The program's opening statement speaks volumes about the one-sidedness of the entire video. The producers of this supposedly factual historic program aren't even good enough at their work to be able to effectively PRETEND to be unbiased.

Save your money. If you want to watch fabricated half-truths, buy a standard Hollywood produced gladiator movie. At least they are more entertaining.

1.0 out of 5 stars do not buy ....... Two thumbs way down, January 27, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Battles That Changed World: Greek-Persian Wars [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Calling persian civilization "savage" where persia was the heaven of minorities more than 2000 years ago, and persian emperors were the ones who wrote THE FIRST "Human Rights" only is a sign of ignorance, lack of knowledge and prejudice of the those who made this video. Its sad how some ignorants try to wite their own version of history. This video does not even worth 5 pennies....
