About

If you want a visually striking, easy-to-follow WWII highlight reel, this may work well for you; Not for you if you need deeply new research, strict neutrality, or fully accurate visual sourcing, or if you prefer more detailed series like World War II in Colour or WWII in Color: Road to Victory.

Pros: vivid colour restoration; entertaining WWII recap; strong expert input | Cons: information feels limited; colours sometimes off; perceived bias
