Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Band of Brothers earns its spot. Band of Brothers understands that stakes only matter if you care who is at risk. Drawn from interviews with survivors of Easy Company, as well as their journals and letters, Band of Brothers chronicles the experiences of these men from paratrooper training in Georgia through the end of the war. As an elite rifle company parachuting into Normandy early on D-Day morning, participants in the Battle of the Bulge, and witness to the horrors of war, the men of Easy knew extraordinary bravery and extraordinary fear - and became the stuff of legend. Based on Stephen E. The physicality Michael Cudlitz and Rick Gomez bring elevates every sequence. Band of Brothers premiered in 2001. What separates Band of Brothers from disposable action entertainment is character work that survives the explosions. Every minute repays the time invested, and the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
