User Review - 10/10 by Mark NI'm a baby boomer. This movie is great.
User Review - 10/10 by Jean DI thought this was Tom Selleck's best performance. War is a strategic plan with multiple variables. It is the most high stakes gamble anyone can participate in. The wisdom and skill for wich General Eisenhower executed his plan knowing even in best scenario possible human lives were the price. I thought this was 5stars
User Review - 10/10 by Jason GGreat WWII Movie !! Very accurate historically
User Review - 10/10 by Henning RUnbelievable! Gripping and very well-scripted. I just wish it was a longer movie, it was that good.
User Review - 10/10 by Tyler HStellar movie that is nearly 100% accurate
User Review - 10/10 by Steve MExcellent! This is not a war film per say, but rather a portrayal of Dwight Eisenhower as Supreme Allied Commander in the months leading up to the Allied invasion of Normandy in June, 1944. It gives a fascinating picture of Eisenhower and how he was able to manage both the politics of the Allied coalition and coordinate the planning and execution of the largest seaborne invasion in history.
User Review - 8/10 by Trevor RA smart script by Lionel Chetwynd and a thoughtful performance by Tom Selleck make this a better then average TV movie. This film follows the 90 days and decisions leading up to D-Day. The supporting cast is great as well. A must for anyone interested in this period of History.
User Review - 8/10 by Jon HIt portrayed a different aspect of D-Day, but did so without boring the audience.
