1.0 out of 5 stars great films, Ruibbish transfer, November 4, 2002
I saw this dvd and thought it was a bargain .... Was I wrong. It contains 3 great films all spoilt by the worst transfer I have ever seen. The picture is far worse than the vhs I have and it also keeps freezing and pixelating. I have the reg 2 version of Immortal battalion and it is a fantastic transfer. Avoid this dvd at all costs.

4.0 out of 5 stars The immortal Battalion is worth the DVD, July 27, 2001

This is a review of The immortal Battalion

It was an immortal squad but it is immortal

There is a lot more depth to this movie than you would expect. Yes it is a propaganda movie. But it portrayed the beginning of the breakdown of the class system in England. David Nine plays a junior officer than was from a civilian brigade and now must learn to get along with his Sergeant and men. He goes from aloofness to comrade by the end of the movie. There is plenty of action as the troop transport that they are on gets torpedoed. And they even get to fix bayonets.

2.0 out of 5 stars Worth the money
Definetly worth the money, especially if you are a David Niven fan. A good group of films that show the WWII mentality of the times. A good DVD to add to your collection.
