    To me, this movie is perfection.

    Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

    The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

    All the other comments about this series are right on. This is a superb series that is a must for anyone interested in WWII. The archival footage is extensive and fascinating. Now, I just started viewing the 3 DVD set of this series. I must say, I'm a little disappointed. First, the print used is very worn. This may be due to haste, or it could be that all known prints are in really rough shape. Secondly, this appears to be a video of the film that was transferred to DVD. So what we are looking at is a somewhat blurry and worn version that is many generations (copies) old. Like I said, I'm a LITTLE disappointed, not a lot. Glad I got it.

    I have the series on DVD.Everything about it is wonderful - except the music. I know, I know, the music is supposed to be the best part, but I hated the music. To me, the music by Rogers just gets on my nerves. There's far too much of it.Just when you are getting into a show, here comes these patriotic horns. I'm not a brass man anyway. The music seems to really stand out. Maybe it was mixed too loud.As a matter of fact, the whole series is loud! But there's a lot of guns going off and Japanese planes crashing...and HORNS.The added (DVD) introductions by Peter Graves are excellent.

    Even in Black and White, Victory at Sea stands as a TV masterpiece. Their production techniques a half century ago using a dramatic musical score to allow the action to flow in lieu of unnecessary chatter, but with the occasional powerful voice of Leonard Graves to tie the scenes together was a model for NFL Films.

    I first watched this film series at the age of 13 and to say the least I was enchanted. Richard Rogers Music was a huge boost to a documentary that was unequaled then and since. The stark black and white film and the real footage went a long way in providing the realism. I found the Narration excellent along with the haunting refrains of Rogers' score in the background. I have watched the film all 26 episodes time and time again and of course have the original records including the one with sound effects. I strongly recommend the series to anyone interested in the History of World War 11 as it pertained to the U.S. Navy and Marine Corp.
