This is without a doubt one of the best WW2 series ever made and to be honest with the collective force of Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg it is easy to see why. This series, based on the book Band of Brothers by Stephen E. Ambrose, follows the men of Easy Company, 506th Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division, U.S. Army as ... Read the complete review

Whilst I am not normally big on war dramas, after playing the Call of Duty:World at War game on the PS3, I saw Band of Brothers at my local DVD rental shop and decided to give it a go. I have to say I was not dissapointed with the DVD's at all, and I think that the way the series followed Easy Company throughout the war was ... Read the complete review

I write this review on the 'complete series commemorative gift set' which is housed in a tin with a card coverlet. My dad bought this for me for Christmas along with a few other DVDs (I think he got a special deal at the DVD shop!!). This is a 6 disc set - a lot of running time, but if you have the time well worth sitting down to ... Read the complete review

Band of Brothers... a massive massive project, how do you review something so huge? To begin with, i suppose it's important to state that Band of Brothers (BoB) is based as accurately as possible on the REAL MEN AND EVENTS of Easy Company, 101st Airborne in WW2. The production team was helped by constant phone calls and ... Read the complete review
