Critically acclaimed and a commercial success immediately upon its first broadcast in Germany. It has been described as "Band of Brothers" from the perspective of the Germans. This mini-series has absolutely no similarity to the HBO show, other than the time period in which it set. The production standards are excellent. Several story threads follow the lives of a group of young friends finding their own way through the turmoil and tragedy of War. Highly recommended, especially if you appreciate historical accuracy and good story telling.

Very much enjoyed this series when shown on tv. I found it very engaging and if watched as a historical fictional drama it is a great piece of work. If however , you are fussy about the improbability of some scenes and want to criticise the historical morality or accuracy in minute detail as some do then watch something else . What this is is a great piece of tv viewing from a fresh viewpoint and as that this work deserves some credit.I have seen much much worse from this period in history .

This miniseries was shown on the BBC a few years ago so I wanted to revisit it on DVD. German production values are very high and this series is extremely vivid and shocking in places, so not for the faint-hearted! German language with English subtitles for anyone whose German is a bit rusty. I would recommend this DVD very highly.
