It’s fine, not as good as it’s made out to be. Midway through, all the episodes become the same thing. Just guys screaming medic! for 45 minutes straight. There’s barely a story at all, it’s mostly a series of action sequences. Not that there’s anything wrong with that if all you’re looking for is action, not much past that though.

We all have our own opinions, but I must have watched a different version than you did.

I won't post spoilers, other than to say the last couple episodes aren't about battles.

It’s the best piece of film ever made. It’s truly timeless.

I think it’s so much better because it was made in the early 2000’s. You can tell how much of the show was truly filmed and not unrealistic CGI - where I think Masters of the Air is hurt (still loving the show.) This new 4K Ultra HD mixed with lots of CGI can just make things look so fake.

The budget of Band of Brothers was unheard of at the time. Also the actors really play almost all the roles perfectly. It’s hard to think of anyone that was mis-cast. Damien Lewis was perfect, among alot of others
