Mit Superlativen sind wir meist sehr sparsam, eine TV-Serie die großes Lob verdient ist allerdings ohne Zweifel "Band Of Brothers - Wir waren Brüder". Was Tom Hanks und Steven Spielberg bei dieser Serie als ausführende Produzenten präsentieren, ist die großartige Geschichte einer US-Fallschirmspringerstaffel während des zweiten Weltkrieges.

Probably the best war series or film I've ever seen. Except for minor details, it has absolutely realistic combat scenes, weaponry and equipment, a well-written script, and well-cast characters. I would never have expected to see anything like this made by the Americans. They never seem to bother with historical accuracy of combat equipment. Those who've seen Battle of the Bulge know what I'm talking about. Their strategy is the following: a tank’s a tank, and as long as it has tracks, who can tell the difference? This series shows that with a little effort they can achieve greatness. Plus, the show doesn’t just focus on combat action, it also portrays the characters very well, which makes it even better and more interesting. The only disappointment came when the final episode was over.

Currahee (2001) (E01)
After a long break, I found myself drawn back to my favorite series, for two reasons. Firstly, I simply missed it. Secondly, having recently read the book by Stephen Ambrose, I was eager to compare my fresh impressions from the book with how the filmmakers handled it. I was completely satisfied. The minor differences made sense, and knowing the source material actually made me enjoy the episode even more than before.

Der erste Tag (2001) (E02)
I've never seen a film or TV episode about the first day of the Normandy invasion shot with such high quality and realism. While the creators focused on small units and individuals, allowing for more attention to detail, I was absolutely thrilled with the result. The portrayal of German cannons in a cluster left me scratching my head. Not to mention the soldier's face that looked like it was torn apart by grenade shrapnel after machine gun fire. Despite these flaws in the content, it was still a great episode.

Carentan - Brennpunkt Normandie (2001) (E03)
Another perfect and realistic spectacle. If I had to nitpick, it would be about the appearance of the German armored vehicles, but that's just me. Five stars without hesitation. Anyone who has played Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 will definitely feel like they experienced Carentan firsthand.

Die Neuen (2001) (E04)
I thought I wouldn't comment on distributor's content anymore, but the sentence "... and they are getting acquainted with newcomers who are supposed to replace them." cannot be taken seriously. What an idiot... but nevermind. Regarding the episode, I can only say again that it was great. The difference compared to the book was that Stephen Ambrose never used the term "Tiger" in connection with the activities of Company E in the Netherlands.

Kreuzungen (2001) (E05)
Another perfect episode. Modern movies featuring nearly invincible American soldiers who become Terminators when injured look like the product of a sick mind compared to this episode.
()
Bastogne (2001) (E06)
I gave this episode only four stars, mainly because the creators added a completely unnecessary storyline with a nurse. The siege of Bastogne didn't need a "touching almost-romance" to make it impactful. Just imagining being in the shoes of the boys from the 506th regiment is powerful enough. Also, I wish they had mentioned that Eugene Roe was nominated for the Medal of Honor for his actions at Bastogne.

Durchbruch (2001) (E07)
Yet another episode I can't find a single fault with, even if I tried. I've always been deeply interested in the Second World War, though I can't pinpoint exactly why. Despite my fascination, I've never romanticized war, and this episode perfectly captures its ugly reality, which often gets glossed over in tales of heroism. A little side note for the creators: it might be worth brushing up on the definitions of "permanent" and "massacre." And maybe consider bringing in a professional advisor — they could clarify that an artillery gun isn't loaded with bullets.

Der Spezialauftrag (2001) (E08)
Another great episode! I feel like I'm running out of ways to praise this show. Even though Webster was the guide to this episode, it was clearly a Malarkey episode for me, and Scott Grimes absolutely blew me away.
()
Warum wir kämpfen (2001) (E09)
I had to dock a star for the second time because the creators stretched the plot unnecessarily, just to tug at the heartstrings. In my copy of Ambrose's book, the concentration camp passage was missing, and I suspect it was included mainly because of Steven Spielberg. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely agree that concentration camps, gulags, and internment camps for Japanese-American citizens were disgusting abominations.

Kriegsende (2001) (E10)
I couldn't imagine a better ending to the show or a more fitting farewell to the soldiers of Easy Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne Division. The tenth episode was fantastic, offering a stark contrast to the horrors of the Siege of Bastogne. Yet, it kept me glued to the screen. Excellent work.
