Review of Military Intelligence and You! (2006) by Darian H — 08 Aug 2008

Allegedly intended, and certainly billed, as a parody of the military training and recruitment videos of the 40s, it only occasionally seems to put forth the effort to make actual jokes at their expense, and at the expense of the military.

Apart from these occasional ribbings at the differences between actual wartime situations and the watered down equivalents portrayed in those old propganda-reels (and a few sly references to America's current war on the abstract concept of "fear"), it more often than not comes across as more of a genuine tribute to them.

Still, it kept me fairly amused.
