Memorable, crazy movie

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Then, watch this one only. I know the Normandy area perfectly. When I see how the 101 and the others, of course, did what those children did, and this representation of how real fear is (not to be confused with cowardice) (I left wondering, could we bring the spirit of those kids back to countries like Venezuela? Here cowards of both sides destroyed the country without shooting at anything). (I can see it every day for the benefit of my job. There are priceless management lessons that we can't ignore today)

The show set out what it meant to do I believe which is show what one particular actual company had to endure during WW2. It showed all the things they went through. The waiting times, the bad officers, the grunts perspective as well as good men rising through the ranks. What I thought it best illustrated is how pointless and miserable it was to be a grunt. You just do whatever you are told and try not to die even when half the time your mission is completely pointless. The one area that didn't land to me was the attachment to the characters. I really only ever liked the two men who worked together at the end after the war, the red head officer and the dude who was in office space. Other than that the characters were too in and out due to injury, death, or just non-focus on the character to truly make me care for them. I cared for them because it was a true story but not because what was on the screen. The last few episodes had emotional moments that did land when they liberated a concentration camp and when the actual men talked about the men who passed in the war and didn't get to have after war lives. They told what some of the men did or were doing after the war and just trying to get through life and then some of them talked about their friends they lost. Seeing some of these men break down or get close legitimately made me cry and feel bad for not loving the show. I almost just wanted to watch a documentary of them telling their stories telling the good, the bad, and the ugly of the war rather than watch this show but I'm sure that would be way too hard for them. True heroes.

I picked this TV series only for its poster and its catchy title. Then I was amazed to see Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg serving as executive producer for the show because saving private Ryan is one of my favorite movie. I watched the whole series in one sitting spellbound and amazed. WWII has always interested me as a history student and I never miss a chance to watch any movie or TV series centered on WWII. After watching band of brothers bravery of easy company made me cry. Especially the seventh episode ' the breaking point' focusing on Carwood Lipton's importance. Donnie Wahlberg nailed the character, in my opinion playing Lipton's character is Donnie best work till date. Not only Donnie but every actor who played a role in this show was awesome. If you call yourself a movie geek but haven't seen this one, I suggest you do it now. A master piece indeed.

Band of Brothers is the truest depiction of WWII I have seen to date.
