Reviews:

JPV852 (6/10)

More or less a Cliff's Notes about D-Day with CGI animation and only archive photos. Like most of these made for IMAX documentaries, might've looked good on the big screen, but home just isn't all that interesting, and there are plenty of real documentaries worth the time. Also, and this is minor, didn't really care for Tom Brokaw's narration. 2.75/5
