"Gritty and Stylish Film"
The acting is exceptional and the tenor of the film is greatly enhanced by the suspenseful cinematography by Philipp Blaubach. This is far more than just another prison break film. This is a polished psychological thriller that deserves wide attention. ~D. Grady

Band of Brothers - The Ultimate WWII experience!

"Band of Brothers is an awe inspiring and visually stunning tribute, not only to Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, but to the "Greatest Generation." But for their sacrifices, would we share the freedoms we so cherish and covet to our vests today! Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg deserve all of the awards and accolades they received for bringing this epic to HBO and now this incredible DVD box set!" ~K. Wyatt

Customer Review:
Probably One of the Best War Films Ever Made.

"I have to say that this series blew me away. I was so impressed with the effort put into Saving Private Ryan to give it a documentary look and feel. Band Of Brothers falls from the same tree. Once again, Hanks and Spielberg reunite to produce this epic cable series of WW2 as told by the men themselves. Every episode has interviews from the soldiers who were there. Very realistic and emotional stuff.

First off, the set comes in a metal box with fold out style disk holders. Exactly like the standard dvd edtion a few years ago. The Blu-Ray edition has 6 disks total. 2 episodes per disk on the first 5 with many, many extras on number 6.

The quality of the picture is perfect. These films were shot with tons of natural grain for that documentary style look. The lenses also give the look of a 40's camera used in the field. Although the film itself is washed out and very rough, it has awesome detail." ~D.Stone

Customer Review:
Strangely , very appealing
"Overall, if you enjoy horror and science fiction crossovers that aren't outright tricks (like Event Horizon), and if you're a relatively forgiving film enthusiast who does not expect everything to meet your ideals, this movie will entertain and amuse you and maybe find a space on your shelf for future reviewing." ~Doppelganger

    I think Damian Lewis is a terrific actor! Loved him in the TV series Life, which should not have been cancelled. Of course, TV leans toward reality garbage and series slanted toward the lowest common denominator mentality, so I was not surprised.

    He is actually a really good actor and it's unfortunate he isn't more mainstream, he does deserve it.

    We don't see enough of Damian. He's a great actor with lots of charisma.
