Much has been written about this all new boxset of the iconic TV series 'World At War' Whilst critic reviews were a little unkind about altering the original aspect ratio of the original broadcast show to an all new widescreen version with a added dynamic soundtrack I actually found this beneficial and it actually sharpened up the overall picture quality and sounded even better than it had before - so a worthy cause in my opinion. This actual restoration documentary has been put together really well (which is part of the 'additions' in the Blu-ray & DVD menu) and offers an insight into the really hard painstaking work that Eyeframe had to go through to make this series even more enjoyable going into the new digital revolution of todays broadcast standards. Worth noting that many of the current broadcast networks wouldn't be able to play the 'old' format, so this really was necessary creating a new 16:9 HD widescreen format with added dynamic soundtracks for future generations to enjoy and appreciate history as it should be told. Well done Freemantle Media - a great and worthy commission.
