merelyaninnuendo Band Of Brothers4 Out Of 5Band Of Brothers is a character driven mini-series that is at best, precisely and probably an almost documentary but with a taste of theatrical that might easily leaves the viewers' pallet shook. First and foremost the credit does and should go to the research team that offers an unforgettable experience to the viewers of the field work on an ongoing battle; you are more exhausted than the characters. Despite of having such a wider range and scale the makers wisely makes a choice on narrowing down the priorities to the theme of "nature" where each part of it (there are 10 chapters), plays and projects a vital side of it. The adaptation of Ambrose's novel is smart, exquisite and brimming with writhing emotions where the rest of the work is left up to execution which is undeniably excellent; the quality surpasses one's usual feature. The series is also emotionally fueled where the manipulated audience finds itself on the melted side of the aisle with a cathartic energy that pumps up the heartbeat. If the camera work is beautiful with some appealing live locations then it also has some brutal and inedible sequences where the art designers have done a tremendous work. It is rich on technical aspects like metaphorical cinematography, stunning and cringe-worthy visuals, sharp sound effects, behemoth production designs, accurate costume designs and again the choreography of each battle sequences; all blends in and rains on the audience leaving them breathless. The cast too have invested all their chips in which pays well, especially Lewis and Levingston. The chemistry among the characters, makers' non-biased world and the awareness of each and every details are the high points of this mini-series. Band Of Brothers is a brief anthology of the horrendous symphony that nature is along with the repercussions that it ought not but inevitably breeds.
anselmdaniel This review contains spoilers.Band of Brothers is a HBO miniseries following Easy Company of the 101st paratrooper division from boot-camp to the surrender of Germany. The miniseries takes a grounded look at the paratroopers in Easy Company across boot-camp, D-Day, Operation Market Garden, The Battle of the Bulge, and the occupation of Germany. Each episode follows a small group of soldiers with recurring characters from earlier episodes.Band of Brothers is a high budget miniseries. Each scene and episode has the high production values and sets that a movie does. This is one of the great pros of the series as the high budget improves the enjoyment of the series and allows most of what was described in the book and memoirs to happen on the screen. There are pitched battles, tank battles, and patrols all at a high budget here. With another company that may not have been willing to spend the budget, the show would have absolutely suffered in quality of execution.Each episode explores select soldiers in Easy Company. This became an interesting draw for each episode as they all felt distinct. I found myself caring about each focus character with me continuing to care when they would become a recurring character in other episodes.Band of Brothers is highly recommended. The miniseries is a great examination of a paratrooper company in World War 2.
mase-6 Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy and Tom Hardy didn't become stars overnight. They started out in small roles like these and worked their way up.
