Editor's Note
This 10-part HBO television miniseries focuses on Easy Company, a group of American soldiers in World War II, tracking their experiences from the beginning of boot camp to the end of the war. Anchored by actors Damian Lewis and Ron Livingston, the series gives detailed attention to their experiences as a group, as well as the way that each of them develops individually. Based on historian Stephen E. Ambrose's book of real-life accounts, BAND OF BROTHERS was executive produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, who worked together on SAVING PRIVATE RYAN. Hanks also directed one episode, featuring his son, Colin Hanks.

5 of 5 WOW ... Thursday, December 21, 2006
CB from Miami, Florida
First time I saw it - WOW. Second time I saw it in reruns on HBO - WOW. I own it, and I watch it from time to time - WOW.
The cinematography is grade A. You feel like you are in Europe and the mood is always right. The action sequences get your heart pumping. The look and feel of the scenes really seem authentic.
The acting was great - you really felt for the soldiers. The characters had life and their delivery was superb.
The plot was overwhelming at times. I shed a tear many a time with this series and I am not easy to get to. Was this review helpful?
