Band Of Brothers Limited Edition Collectable Tin 6 Discs Blu-ray Summary

"From this day to the ending of the world, we in it shall be remembered. We few, we happy few, we band of brothers. For he today that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother."

From Academy Award winners Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, HBO presents the story of Easy Company - an elite team of U.S. paratroopers whose WWII exploits are as incredible as they are true.

Based on the bestseller by Stephen E. Ambrose, the epic 10-part miniseries Band Of Brothers tells the story of Easy Company, 506th Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division, U.S. Army.

Drawn from interviews with survivors of Easy Company, as well as soldiers' journals and letters, Band Of Brothers chronicles the experiences of these men who knew extraordinary bravery and extraordinary fear. They were an elite rifle company parachuting into France early on D-Day morning, fighting in the Battle of the Bulge and capturing Hitler's Eagle's Nest at Berchtesgaden. They were also a unit that suffered vast casualties, and whose lives became legend.

They were ordinary men, swept up in the most extraordinary conflict in history. With the eyes of the world upon them, they found their greatest source of strength in one another.

this series is so unbelievably realistic, so authentic. - bill - 19 February 2010
there arent much tv-series which have left such an impression on me as band of brothers did. from the moment i saw the first episodes, i knew i had to buy this on dvd.this series, telling you the story of easy company of the us army airbourne paratrooper division is so unbelievably realistic, so authentic... there has been put so much effort in taking care of all the details that it makes you believe that you are right in the middle of all the action. this is an outstanding achievement. its about ten hours long, but i wouldnt mind if it was a few hours longer. each episode opens with interviews with several of the actual men from easy company, talking about some of the experiences that that episode deals with. when you buy the special edition dvd box (a metal case with 6 instead of 5 dvds), you will find the complete interviews with these men on the extra dvd. these interviews certainly arent to be missed! as you may have guessed, im one of the biggest fans of this series. i could go on for hours about it, but our time is limited and instead of reading this you better watch the series yourself. according to me, there is only one score appropriate for a masterpiece like this one and that is 5/5. amazing!!!!

terrific movie! one to treasure and watch over and over. - mack - 19 February 2010
this movie will end up in the top ten of the best movies ever made, probably number 1. it is a marvelous movie! i am on my sixth viewing of it and every time i find something i missed the previous times. i recommend watching the movie and then reading the book and then watching it again and again. the first time is spent sorting the soldiers out and a viewer misses a lot of what is going on-like knowing it was lt. meehanss plane that crashed, killing all aboard. some of the stuff is rather subliminal-like winters appearance. always neat and shaved, the person to respect for many reasons. a man of few words, a quality which his men seemed to have, too, but every man knew how he felt about them. i cant say enough good things about this movie but it is a movie to treasure and watch over and over. ive now watched the whole series 7 times and it gets better every time. and i still find things i missed. i thought it terrific the first viewing and every viewing since adds to that feeling. dont miss this movie!!!!
