    Too much editorializing

    Watching this on Netflix, I find myself quite annoyed by the presenter David. Too much editorializing. It shouldn't be about him, but it feels like he wants it to be. I don't know why I'm surprised given the picture chosen as the cover of this movie...

    Fascinating Insight Into Stalin's Character

    Extremely well written and presented, this documentary provides fascinating insights into Stalin's character by studying his responses at critical moments of World War II. David Reynolds is an expert on the era and he uses original footage along with dramatisations to illustrate the situations he explores. I found his presentation not only entertaining, but also very effective in bringing these significant events to life. His enthusiasm for the subject is infectious and left me wanting to know even more about the subject. Highly recommended along with his other series on Hitler, Churchill and Roosevelt.
