Too boring for words, February 3, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Just the Facts - Middle Ages [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This video is a very colorful, informative video that is constantly interrupted by three old farts that give their very learned opinions about the Middle Ages. It is very slow, plodding and boring. I bought this hoping to show it to my class that is studying about the Middle Ages, but if I hated it they would hate it and me too! Is there anyway to get more information about these videos prior to purchasing??? This was a waste of money.

Boring and not instructive, March 19, 2005
This review is from: Just the Facts - Middle Ages [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I reviewed this video for my 9th grade history class. I wanted an interesting overview of the middle ages. The Professors are so boring, slow, er, um,and grasp for words. Any medieval history professor I have met can discourse eloquently and fluently on the subject, but these three can't. Then they start discussing Charlemagne and his contributions. Well, the kids won't know who Charlemagne was, so this is totally backward! They need to get to the main point! Whoever produced this video is certainly not an educator. Save your money.
