Sarah T. @SarahT8 Jun 28 This was a fantastic film, and I really enjoyed it. I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because the graphic violence was far more intense than I expected.

Those areas are touched upon, but not explored as fully as I would have liked. Still, what is covered is handled exceptionally well. The dramatic reenactments, narration by Jeff Daniels, and insights from historians combine to create an educational and highly enjoyable experience.

This should be a mandatory watch in High School. See more Tom K @RT95668284 12/08/2024 Bill Clinton is a lead off guest commentator, let that be your guide as to credibility.
