This 10-part HBO television miniseries focuses on Easy Company, a group of American soldiers in World War II, tracking their experiences from the beginning of boot camp to the end of the war. Anchored by actors Damian Lewis and Ron Livingston, the series gives detailed attention to their experiences as a group, as well as the way that each of them develops individually. Based on historian Stephen E. Ambrose's book of real-life accounts, BAND OF BROTHERS was executive produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, who worked together on SAVING PRIVATE RYAN. Hanks also directed one episode, featuring his son, Colin Hanks.

I watched this series years ago and missed the last two episodes, for some reason I went on holiday… This purchase was a great find and a fantastic bargain, the price was amazing, if it was Forty quid I would have bought it but for TWELVE pound for this excellently presented boxed set that runs for over 780 minutes is just amazing. The bargain of the year.
This boxed set is very good value for a very small price; its a gripping war yarn with excellent characterisation, and authentic looking sets. My enjoyment was somewhat spoiled by the poor quality of the sound track, I suppose this was probably an ex rental or similar well worn product, but at a good price.
I really rate this series. I like the link to the real story and characters. The experience of these guys in WW2 was amazing - they experienced things that most of my generation never did. It must have had such a huge impact on their lives. The story unfolds in a gripping way. The acting is superb. The realism of the battle scenes is incredible and at times genuinely scary. Definitely a box set that demands to be binge watched.
The title really encapsulates the theme of the series, a real Band of Brothers.
Have enjoyed watching the series once again. Two discs in our old set went wrong, so it’s good to be able to play and experience what the men went through.
Would give '6 star' if I could. Delivered on time and in great condition, No scratches on the DVD's. Never get used of the blood and deaths but every person should watch these.
Fantastic series, watched all of the disks already and will definitely watch them again pretty soon. I cannot praise this series highly enough.
