Movie Reviews of War In The Pacific
Movie Review: Excellent.
Summary: 5 Stars
It is one of the best films of my War Documentary library. It is very comprehensive an it contains plenty authentic war footage. It is the yardstick I use to judge all other war documentaries. The quality of the B&W film varies, but it is generally good and above. The narration is in sequence with the action, and supporting maps are good.
This is an old production, so it has some contemporary cultural and political references, which in no-way is detrimental to the film. Finally, it is a very-long documentary, it is easy to lose perspective of the time-sequence of events. It is a good idea to see it many times, it gets better every time.
Quality Warning: I recommend to put the DVD's in jewel boxes, as insertion in their case ends up damaging the DVD's center hole. I found this to be true for the old (double sided DVD`s ) and the new type case ( Single sided DVD's; I bought a replacement set). Furthermore, the new sets may not play in some DVD players. Example, mine does not play in the PC, but it does in the DVD player. I suspect quality issues. But the set is now very cheap, and the material very good.
