Customer Reviews of Battlefield: The Battle of Stalingrad
Excellent Presentation of the Unknown War The series "Battlefield" is an outstanding presentation of
major engagements in the Second World War. The battles are
discussed in detail and emphasis is on the context of the
battle within the larger strategy of the war. This particular
film is very important because it discusses the gigantic
engagement at Stalingrad which marked (along with El Alamein) the turning part of the war. Western viewers have a hard time getting information about the battles on the Eastern Front which is why it is referred to as the Unknown War. Most television and movie documentaries in the West emphasize the contribution (important as it was) of the US and Britain to the defeat of Nazi Germany, but the fact is that 3/4 of the total strength of the German Wehrmacht was destroyed by Soviet forces. This outstanding film comes to correct this serious lack of perspective. The producers of this magnificant series have proven that with a low budget, using archive films and some good computer graphics for making clear maps, a very informative documentary film can be made. I watch these films over and over because there is so much information in them, it is hard to absorb it all in one sitting. I would say, though, that these films are designed for someone who has more than just a passing interest in the Second World War.
Outstanding description of historical battle
This volumn, like all in the series, covers all aspects of the battle in excellent detail. The generals, arms, tactics, and history of the competing armies are described. I was most impressed with the computer generated displays of the battle showing the relative movement of forces. Also, the detail of coverage was outstanding.
Computer graphics and film representation
A fair video that explains, in a very general way, the battle with graphic maps and lines. The film portions are disappointing. Many are repeated, and some I doubt were even taken near Stalingrad - just generic winter fighting scenes. END
