Brilliant and touching

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Freeman
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Skyler
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

6/1/18. This seems to be 6 episodes from the 24-episode documentary, Nazi Mega Weapons. The 6 episodes I saw were pretty good. Each episode dealt with an engineering project the Nazi regime spent time and money on building an infrastructure that would support it for a thousands years. So, they were planning for the long-term. If you are history buff, you will probably appreciate the coverage with archival footage and serious narrative.

Anyone interested in history, and especially World War 2, will find this compelling viewing. While we are aware of some of the mega weapons invented by the Nazis (e.g., the V2, the Bismarck, the Panzer) this show goes into great detail about each of the weapons and weapon systems. We learn not merely about the weapons, but their comparative value as well as their development, including costs, man power (often slave labor), and their priority within the political arena.Even more interesting, there are on-site investigations of sunken ships (the Tripitz), abandoned manufacturing depots (the Panzers), re-modeled dry docks, etc. They have "battlefield archaeologists" and weapons experts and historians to bring you through every aspect of the show.The only real fault is the guy who plays Hitler. Otherwise this is a great show.

Well made.Interestingly it appears the series was commissioned by a US Company but produced in by a UK crew (due to the nature of WWII being partly in Europe I imagine).Consequently, this TV show actually has 2 names and 2 narrations.In America I believe it is called Nazi Mega Weapons with a American narration.In UK I believe it is called Nazi Mega Structures with a British narration.It's nice to have a choice of narration.The series aired on Channel 4 in the UK.

This comes across exactly like a History Channel produced show, with a combination of history, CGI, and reality TV style fake drama.A few years ago someone at the History Channel got a new computer. Suddenly all their history shows looked exactly the same, with phony computer generated tank battles, CGI plane battles, CGI ship battles, etc. This looks like it was done on the same computer. Same overly dramatic music, same need to create drama, same inability to just tell the viewers what happened and why. It's history. It has already happened. Just tell the viewers what happened, why it happened, and how it happened. If you have footage, include it. If I want to watch a fictional drama based on history I'll watch a movie. Not worthy of PBS.
