The greatest conflict of the Twentieth Century. "World War 2: The Complete History" offers a broad scoped, yet in-depth and neutral perspective of the Second World War. From its beginning with the Versaille Treaty and the invasion of Manchuria, to its conclusion at the Nuremburg Trials and the beginning of the Cold War, we see the oft overlooked details of the people and events that shaped the second half of the Twentieth Century and beyond. —colmhain

One of the lesser world war 2 documentaries

Good footage, generally well constructed and organised. HOWEVER, the dialogue/narrative is drab, it is annoying and doesn't engage the viewer. The voice (I've seen the US version), is robotic and boring. Finally, the music is poorly balanced in terms of the volume, quite often the viewer finds him/herself trying to listen to the narrative which competes with the music and the actual soundtrack.

No documentary series will probably ever come close to the immortal "World at War", however, this one was well planned and organised, probably ideal for anybody studying the war, just very poorly delivered
