Rating: 4/5 --
Fact and fiction endow each other with vitality and truth.

Guardian
Rating: A- --
Though not as aggressive as the freeform artistry of '70s contemporaries like Nicolas Roeg or Richard Lester, Cooper's film spins a hypnotic tone from flash-forwards, fantasy sequences, and dreamlike premonitions.

AV Club
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.

Chicago Reader
Rating: 4/5 --
A glimpse of both the inner life of the soldier waiting for combat, and the literal reality of the most devastating war the world has ever seen.

The Skinny
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
Rating: 5/5 --
Overlord, a prize-winning entry in the 1975 Berlin Film Festival, deserves to join the pantheon of essential World War II combat movies.
New York Times
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.
