Jason M @RT35212924 May 21 I've seen plenty of WW2 documentaries and movies, but I think it's fair to say that WW1 doesn't get as much attention as it should, considering how much it shaped the 20th century and it's result led to WW2. This documentary definitely puts its focus on the American involvement, which I think is needed for an American audience. I'm in my mid-30s and find it crazy that I didn't learn more about this war in school. The mix of historical footage and modern day filmmaking make this a very enjoyable and educational experience.
