Just finished watching the DVD Band of Brothers today and it is a great flick. It's a whole 10 hours long but well worth watching if you get a chance. It's 6 discs with one of them being a bonus documentary.<br><br>Don't want to give any of it away so I wont say anymore, but if you like WWII movies you need to check this one out. It's really, really good. Much better than Saving Privet Ryan IMHO.<br><br>DB

 

You are absolutely correct. I used to catch it on HBO while on the road. That show kicked butt. IMHO the only thing HBO has made in a while that is worth a crap. <br><br>The guy who plays the Army Colonel is a real-life former USMC Colonel who advises Hollywood for military accuracy.

 

Good Flic and having Tom Hanks as part of the Production team is the reason it is so good. A great deal of that movie<br>follows very closely the action that this unit was involved in WWII. And it does it in a correct manner, rather than the Hero merely tying a bandana around his head and then jumping over mortar fire at a dead run :<br><br> Good Movie and one that a soldier can enjoy without laughing at the absurdity of Hollywood's stunts.<br><br> I give it a 78 because it had a great beat and was easy to dance too! ;D

Are you saying you don't like any of the &quot;Rambo&quot; flicks???

I have caught a little bit of it and it does look excellent!

 

My little brother has the set. He says it is excellent. Now I have to figure out how to &quot;borrow&quot; it. He shouldn't mind - he's already seen it.

I have not seen the Movie but the book was awsome.
