THE WORLD WAR fights onto Bluray!

Jeri Jacquin, Movie Maven

Premiering on HISTORY to 13 million viewers to this three night event, these episodes are put together to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of World War I and the 75th Anniversary of World War II.

The episodes cover those who brought about the wars and those responsible for fighting them. THE WORLD WARS tell of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Winston Churchill, Charles de Gaulle and George Patton and their stories.

Telling the stories of these men from their beginnings as prisoners, soldiers and fighters in World War I that led them to their position in history in World War II. This is the epic Bluray that shares the history of our world!

FINAL WORD: This is an in-depth history lesson for every adult! Even as a history major in college there is so much more here to learn about. From factual accounts to reenactments and interviews with historians and politicians, this bluray makes clear how the history came to be.

This is one of the definitive works of history put together by the Emmy Award winning team responsible for THE MEN WHO BUILT AMERICA. Narrated beautifully by Jeremy Renner, who in 2009 was in the stunning film THE HURT LOCKER.

The Bluray includes: A character in depth of Hitler, Eisenhower, FDR, Truman, Stalin and Churchill; World War 1: One Word featurette, “Tech Developments of WWI” featurette, “Life in a Trench”, “The US in WWI”, “Did WWI Lead to WWII”, “Legacy of WWI”, “Global Connections of WWI”, “Nationalism and WWI”, “Harlem Hellfighters” and Deleted Scenes.

Lionsgate Home Entertainment brings a strong and diversified company that brings motion picture production with television, syndication, home and family entertainment along with digital distribution and channel platforms. Bringing such iconic shows as MAD MEN and NURSE JACKIE along with ANGER MANAGEMENT and ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK, they currently have over 30 television shows on 20 networks.

TUBS OF POPCORN: I give THE WORLD WARS four tubs of popcorn out of five. THE WORLD WARS is an amazing collection of footage, photos and reenactments that I couldn’t help but watch from beginning to end.

Knowing our history is so very important and seems to be somewhat lacking. This Bluray set has such potential that I dare say it should be in classrooms everywhere. Each episode is unique in its presentation and, as someone who enjoys history, the cinematography is stunning and the reenactments well done. Another stunning part of THE WORLD WARS is that it doesn’t sugar coat the events but instead gives an unbiased view of what is factual.

In the end – the world changed them and they changed the world!
