The History Channel’s World War II in HD series arrives on Blu-ray.
It was also great that they recounted the experiences of people of various backgrounds.
Theyre all excellent, particularly Rob Lowe, whose vocal gravitas delivers emotional weight to his voiceover work.
This is most evident as he discusses the mass suicides of Japanese civilians at Saipan.
A fascinating, entertaining and extremely well made series that comes highly recommended.
The quality of the sound more than makes up for the shortcomings of the picture quality.
Five episodes are on each disc, with disc 2 containing the bonus features.
The bonus features lack in both quantity and quality with only three extremely brief documentaries being included.
These are titledCharacter Profiles, Finding the FootageandPreserving the Footageand all three can be viewed in under ten minutes.
