This review is from: WWII - Road to Victory (DVD)

I thought this series was a great value and a great history lesson on the greatest battles of World War II.

1.0 out of 5 stars little if any original color footage, June 10, 2004

This review is from: WWII - Road to Victory (DVD)

I got the impression, from reading the blurb, that this set contains another installment of original color film from the war that is finally getting released to the public. However, it is actually from a series called "Battlefront" and is based on what seems to be (not very well) colorized footage instead. There is little, if any film that looks original to me. Given that there is a surprising amount of the genuine footage available, I've lost interest in this sort of thing. Also, the narration, while not bad, isn't especially interesting either. I'd recommend: "World War II, the Lost color Archive", "World War II, the British Story", "World WAr II in Color", "Perilous Fight", or "D-Day in Color" over this. They have the real thing.

This review is from: WWII - Road to Victory (DVD)

I have seen many WWII dvd sets. This is a keeper. If you prefer color over B & W this is a must. Who cares if the footage has been colorized. It adds life to footage. It seems more real. Adding color seems to be adding more depth and realism. Our world is not B&W, its in color. So viewing this material in color is a treat. Plus its 5 dvds for a low price. A must purchase.
