This is a good WWI video for anyone who enjoys good colorized footage, and accounts from letters from the battlefield. There are also veterans of the war that are still living that give their first-hand accounts of their experiences, which are very interesting. Several historians also give their insight, and the war is very nicely explained. Although several pieces of footage are reused quite often throughout the video, it is still enjoyable for anyone who has a genuine interest in the history of the war.

The presentation of computer enhanced b&w images that in some cases were sort of new added limited value to my extensive video library, legacy of my father. However, the aural commentary of Brannagh was repetitive and boring, each episode basically repeated the same 6+ octagenarian survivors exact same comments and reflections.

This is perhaps one of the most enjoyable documentaries I have seen in recent years. Do not be put off by the colorization process used to tint the existing archival footage; indeed, it actually improves upon the viewing experience and compliments Sir Kenneth Brannah's lucid and absorbing narration. Everything is included here and covered with enough detail to satisfy and entertain either the armchair historian or the seasoned PhD. It is good to see that more high quality documentaries are being made about WWI--in many respects a war that was truly the world's first "modern war" that changed the map of Europe forever.

If you're skeptical of colorization, fear not, these guys did an outstanding job that makes everything very watchable, if not definitive. Some of the downsides are that they tend to recycle their material as the series progresses, and that they show next to no footage of the physically and mentally scarred veterans. Apart from that, this--of all the WWI programs I've watched--is easily the definitive WWI DVD.

A much better dvd series on WWI would be The First World War: The Complete Series (2004). World War I in Color is not a complete set, but less comprehensive and informative. The colorization is an attractive feature to augment the more complete version.
