WWII IN 3D tells the story of the war from the rise of the Nazis, their sweep across Europe, the Allied counterattack and the fall of Nazi Germany. For the first time, you will see dramatic moments of WWII that were captured in 3D with stereographs and then shuttered away in secret archives and attics, until now. This stunning collection of color 3D photos includes Allied reconnaissance photos, a trove of images that documents the rise and fall of the Third Reich, and photos secretly taken by a civilian in occupied France. WWII IN 3D also features an actual 3D motion picture film shot by the Nazis in 1943 and creates a fully immersive, three dimensional portrait of history’s largest and bloodiest conflict.
WWII in 3D arrives on Blu-ray with a 1080p transfer in the original aspect ratio 1.78:1 A pleasing 3D presentation that really pops off the screen with the still photos. Blacks and grays are perfectly balanced. Detail is crisp. The highlight of the show is a rare Nazi propaganda film that was shot in 3D. While the 3D of this part isn't mind blowing it is cool to see such a piece of history. 8.5/10
Audio is provided by a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track. While not an overly aggressive track the LFE is deep but not wall rattling. Surround usage was subtle with this front heavy track. The narration was crystal clear from Tom Wilkinson. 8/10
