Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Rating: 3.5/4 --
Though made 31 years after D-Day, the dramatic scenes have the period look of a '40s movie, which links them perfectly with the stunning archival footage.

Overlord feels like a small but vivid tragedy inside an epic container.

Wall Street Journal
3 stars out of 5 -- A haunting, lyrical meditation on the futility of war....It's seamlessly spliced with archive footage of training missions and the D-Day invasion...
Total Film
4 stars out of 5 -- [An] understated account of one young soldier's preparation for D-Day. The results are powerful, utterly authentic and deeply moving.
Uncut
4 stars out of 5 -- [I]t seamlessly blends genuine World War II footage with a fictional cast of tommies-in-training, simultaneously creating a documentary where the characters are 'fictional,' and a war movie where the 'action is real.
Empire
An interesting failure, this rarely seen 1975 English feature about World War II combines documentary and fictional elements, though they tend to undermine each other.

Product Description:
Shot in 1975, OVERLORD is a little-seen drama about a soldier going off to fight in World War II. Director Stuart Cooper utilizes real footage from the battle itself to add a strong dose of realism to the movie.
