Band of Brothers

I noticed few musical instruments at all; which begs the question: just what kind of band is this?


Band of Brothers (The HBO Mini-series I hope)   November 19, 2001

The mini series that focuses on Easy Company, paratroopers in world war 2. To put it simply, ten hours of Saving Private Ryan. I dont know how many episodes they are going to put on this DVD (The HBO M-S is ten one-hour long episodes) but I would buy each episode individually if that's the case. I think the acting is great, the action is great, the drama is great, the whole thing is great. If you like war movies, BUY IT.


Band of Brothers - A truly outstanding production   November 18, 2001

Whilst this video by HBO and the B.B.C. is not yet released, I have watched the series on the BBC and it is, in my opinion, the finest American war drama I have ever seen. For accuracy and realism it beats "Platoon" and "The Deer Hunter" and just shades "Saving Private Ryan". When you realise that the executive directors are Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, it gives you some idea as to the quality of this production. I eagerly await its release.

Miss it at your peril

I have seen this entire episode on HBO. It is hands down the best WWll Movie/documentary to date, The Acting, Directing,editing,etc. are all 5 star.It really draws you in and won't let go until the end when the only reply for me was:"WoW".To bad its taken this long for some of the stories about the Veterans of WWll to be recognized for the courageous job they did for this Country. My earnest thanks and admiration to all of them.
