Nov 19, 2020Very good. Historically accurate, good portrayal of WW2. Lacking a little in drama and emotion but I'd watch this again before I would watch a farce like Dunkirk.

Like any technical gimmick, though, a movie or TV show is only as good as the writing and characters. It's there where The Liberator fails to come alive, coming across as a pale version of old black-and-white World War II movies, in a way that feels -- as is so easy to do when the emphasis is on gee-whiz technological tools -- like focusing on the wrapping and bow instead of the gift within them.
-
The Liberator would not have worked if it wasn’t animated, due to its speechifying corniness. But the fine acting and arresting visual style takes the WWII drama from mundane to at least watchable.

A limited series made very watchable by the decision to use rotoscope-flavored animation, but rendered vaguely infuriating by inconsistent focus and narrative choices.
