4.0 out of 5 stars Very interesting Documentary, June 18, 2008

This review is from: Reich Underground, The (DVD)

This was one that seemed interesting, but that I didn't expect much from, which turned out to be a delight. Basically two-50 minute shows from Germany (with English narration!) filled with footage of large underground spaces created by the Nazis during WW2. If you've seen the show CITIES OF THE UNDERWORLD, this one is right up your alley, but without the overenthusiastic hosts/narrators. They have an episode on Germany that barely touches on sites seen in this documentary.

5.0 out of 5 stars German Tunnels and Underground Factories in WWII, February 4, 2010

This review is from: Reich Underground, The (DVD)

Simply amazing footage and work to uncover one of the more interesting tidbits of history of Germany during the War. Hitler, in an attempt to protect his production capacity, authorized with his leaders, hundreds of millions of ReichMarks to build underground caverns for the purpose of preserving the building of the German war machine.

We see scenes throughout occuppied Europe, including tunnels still in use as well as ones that were destroyed by bombing raids. Interestingly, we meet one of Adolf Hitler's body guards, who tours us around the site of the major Valkerie assassination attempt.

In color, black and white and with old war footage, we see the lairs of Goebbels, and Hesse, additionally, we see actual family members of Goebbels in their bunker just before they were killed by their parents.

One of the better documentaries of the war. This is well worth the time to buy and view.

3.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat interesting, but also dull, March 24, 2010

This review is from: Reich Underground, The (DVD)

This Brit documentary manages to make a fascinating subject - the Nazi underground industrial infrastructure - a tad dull. We see a lot of footage of old tunnels and mine shafts and the like, overlaid with WWII footage of some of the same structures, not enough. I came away a little antsy.
