An impressively rigorous, unsentimental, and harrowing look at combat during World War II, Band of Brothers follows a company of airborne infantry--Easy Company--from boot camp through the end of the war. The brutality of training takes the audience by increments to the even greater brutality of the war; Easy Company took part in some of the most difficult battles, including the D-Day invasion of Normandy, the failed invasion of Holland, and the Battle of the Bulge, as well as the liberation of a concentration camp and the capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest. But what makes these episodes work is not their historical sweep but their emphasis on riveting details (such as the rattle of a plane as the paratroopers wait to leap, or a flower in the buttonhole of a German soldier) and procedures (from military tactics to the workings of bureaucratic hierarchies). The scope of this miniseries (10 episodes, plus an actual documentary filled with interviews with surviving veterans) allows not only a thoroughness impossible in a two-hour movie, but also captures the wide range of responses to the stress and trauma of war--fear, cynicism, cruelty, compassion, and all-encompassing confusion. The result is a realism that makes both simplistic judgments and jingoistic enthusiasm impossible; the things these soldiers had to do are both terrible and understandable, and the psychological price they paid is made clear. The writing, directing, and acting are superb throughout. The cast is largely unknown, emphasizing the team of actors as a whole unit, much like the regiment; Damian Lewis and Ron Livingston play the central roles of two officers with grit and intelligence. Band of Brothers turns a vast historical event into a series of potent personal experiences; it's a deeply engrossing and affecting accomplishment. --Bret Fetzer

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - It was Band of Brothers, but not Blue Ray
I was really impressed with how fast my order got to me, it was a gift for my son for Christmas. He specifically asked for Blue-ray and I thought that is what he was getting, but he had to take it to a store and pay more money to get the Blue Ray version. I was very upset by this, I just assumed and didn't know what the difference would be, so I didn't pay any attention until he told me Christmas morning that I had purchased the wrong thing, the problem is I didn't, I was just sent the wrong thing. ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Band of Brother -Blu Ray DVD
I love the easy checkout with Amazon.com. I ordered this for my son for Christmas. I got a great price and really fast shipping. He was very happy with the set. It came in a great box to keep all the discs together. Overall extremely happy with the purchase...and more importantly so was my son!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The only project that could have bested "Saving Private Ryan".
I have the DVD version and now have the Blu-Ray version. Yes it's THAT good.
Tom Hanks didn't feel he was done with the story after "Saving Private Ryan". The amount of reasearch, devotion and energy that went into this project will not soon be eclipsed.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Band of Brothers ( Blu Ray )
The older version of "the Band of Brothers" was great, but this new edition with Blu Ray is awesome. Check it out, I think anyone who purchases this cd set will really love it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Band of Brothers Blu Ray DVD
I have this DVD in regular format; enjoy it! The Blu Ray has greatly improved the video and audio (must have surround sound to enjoy the audio). Excellent series, greatly improved with Blu Ray.
