We enjoyed the movie and it is a good thing to be reminded every once in a while what other Americans went through so we can all have the freedoms we have. I read a couple of comments concerning the F word, I wonder what they were…

Since it's a Spielberg-produced show, I found there was too much of a 'goody-goody' element to the series. War is a dirty business, but that's Spielberg for ya; clean happy endings through and through. Greatly disappointed.

One of the most memorable war movies ever. Based on a true to life experience of heroic soldiers. Movie truly depicts what it's like in war. Language and gore some people find offensive and try to denigrate an outstanding movie. If you…

The DVD set I returned to the library after only watching a few minutes. The "F" bombs were way over the top. As my father, who served in WWII and was also a German prison said, "we didn't talk that way". The F word was not casually used…

If you are into this kind of history, you will find few dramas that are better. It is the best I have seen.

This was, sadly, the last film for Suzanne Roquette, a lovely German actress who featured in a couple of German films based on Edgar Wallace stories in the 1960s, including “Hunchback of Soho.” She plays a German widow in episode 9, where…

This was a historic series. The first episode was released two days before 9/11, and the series was effectively sidelined as a cultural event. Every senior high student in America should see this movie and reflect on the sacrifices men and…

Excellent tale of Easy Company from camp into battle on D-Day and beyond.

This is edited. I gave a 5 star and dropped it to a 3 because of the disgusting sex scenes and the horrible F words the script writer's, directors etc. just had to put in this movie. It ruined it for me. I thought I finally was…

Worth the watch. The only problem is the usual problem I have with these kind of stories: WHICH CHARACTERS ARE WHICH????? Seriously, I could hardly tell these men apart. Other than that, one can see to beginnings of several famous…

They try to make this war story look like real life. It is a 10 series story. There is an interview with veterans who were actually in the war attached to the disk.

a panegyric to those, mostly kids, who fought to save Europe - extraordinary

Rare to see big-budget big ensemble cast mini-series these days. Dark & somber. Tough love boot camp for the actors.

So well done and a great homage to the men who served. Brilliant and kudos to two amazing producers.

Terrific series which compels one to examine the differences between the society, mentality, and patriotism of the WWII era versus today. I would recommend that this series be viewed by high school seniors in order that they understand…

An excellent miniseries of American help freeing some of Europe. Superb acting, set up, scenery. The scenes of the labour camps and of Austria are horrifically real. This movie will stay with you for a long time.

This is my most favourite show of all time. Band of Brothers gave me a strong love for military personnel and military history. I can barely put into words how much this show means to me (and yes, it does sound a little drastic, but still)…

I've heard of 'Band of Brothers' but I wasn't interested in watching it for a while until my Uncle told me about it. Oh my goodness this is a good show! Yes just like any war film there is a lot of graphic scenes of war and…

This is a 2001 American-British war drama miniseries based on historian Stephen E. Ambrose's 1993 non-fiction book of the same name. The series dramatizes the history of the "Easy" Company (part of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment,…

If I could, I would give this miniseries 10 stars. I am a lover of war movies and after hearing about this, I thought I'd check it out. I love how each episode focuses on one soldier, to get different point of views about the war. I love…

The best miniseries I have ever had the pleasure to watch. Fascinating look at the European theatre in WWII.

Not your regular "John Wayne" war movie! The truth hurts.

HBO's ten-part series about Easy Company battling Germans throughout Europe is justly acclaimed and maybe the best war mini-series. Damian Lewis (currently on "Homeland") and Ron Livingston (currently on "Boardwalk Empire") lead a fine…

To be with Easy Company from Normany to the Eagles Nest: now that is an adventure I will never forget.
