Movie Reviews

A disappointment and misleading....
Kenneth M. Pizzi | San Mateo, CA United States | 04/04/2008
(2 out of 5 stars)

"On the box of this dual dvd set, one is lead to believe this is a comprehensive history of firearms from their humble and primitive beginnings to the sophisticated weapons of today. Not quite.



What we have here are really a series of crude, amateurish and recycled US Army training films from the early 1980's that are as engaging as old reruns from the "A-Team". A few of the segments are vintage WWII training films in color, like "Meet the Enemy," a 20 minute army training film on German battle tactics in the field. But this is not enough to recommend this set. I purchased my set for $4.99 at Ross-Dress For Less than the $9.99 list price here on Amazon. Nonetheless, even a two star rating is too generous for this dvd set."
