    • Overview

    Drawn from interviews with survivors of Easy Company, as well as their journals and letters, Band of Brothers chronicles the experiences of these men from paratrooper training in Georgia through the end of the war. As an elite rifle company parachuting into Normandy early on D-Day morning, participants in the Battle of the Bulge, and witness to the horrors of war, the men of Easy knew extraordinary bravery and extraordinary fear - and became the stuff of legend. Based on Stephen E. Ambrose's acclaimed book of the same name.

Hollywood Reporter

It is doubtful that any war movie on the large or small screen has captured the varied experiences of ordinary soldiers better than Band of Brothers.

Variety

Ten-part, $120 million adaptation of Stephen E. Ambrose’s bestseller will rivet war buffs with its exceptionally detailed and sharply focused look at the conflict from the point of view of men who were almost continuously in the line of fire for a year’s time.

Common Sense Media

This miniseries pulls no punches when it comes to showing the horrors of war. Like Saving Private Ryan, the battlefield scenes here are so pulse-poundingly realistic and graphic.

Rotten Tomatoes

Band of Brothers offers a visceral, intense look at the horrors of war -- and the sacrifices of the millions of ordinary people who served.

IMDb

The acting, mostly by previously unheralded actors, was superb--particularly that of Damien Lewis (Capt.Winters).
