If you've watched "Brothers in Arms" or "Saving Private Ryan" and you liked it, this series is for you. Actually, it was made by the same people, Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks.
@s191880: soldiers are extras, actually, always, in any war. And they are always children of their country and their time. It would be strange if they behaved like defenders of Stalingrad or heroes of Star Wars, as for me the series is good because they are typical Americans of their time. Unpleasant ones - well, they are not gingerbread to please everyone. As for the plot, it was not originally envisaged in the series as such. The series is based on the memoirs of veterans of those events who were clearly not virtuoso writers, they simply dictated or described themselves what they witnessed. She's like that in real life, she doesn't pull off a romance in most cases. Well, the main question. The modern American paradigm is such that the merits of the USSR (and Russia, respectively) in WW2 are greatly downplayed, while their own merits, on the contrary, are exaggerated. Well, let's take an example from them, let's take the numbers from the ceiling (3% participation, what sounds bad?) and engage in the same masturbation. Let's have a competition who's going to turn who around. Or who will pour more shit on whom. It will turn out to be a lot of fun, I have no doubt that with this approach, a hundred years later, the main characters of World War II will be Honduras and the Ivory Coast, because no one knew about their participation in the war and they forgot to shit.
@s191880: People like you have fun. They won't figure out the issue, but they're going to pour shit on everyone except their own. During World War II, there were three theaters of war in different parts of the world, and countries (states) took almost equal part in all these territories. While the United States was at war with the Japanese, the USSR was holding back Germany. If the Japanese (for a second, this is one of the Axis countries) did not have such a "distracting" factor as the United States, then where would they press with all their might? Of course, to the Far East! Where, again, China helped us. Guys, don't think that the USSR single-handedly defeated Hitler and his allies, we also had allies, and they made a significant contribution to this event. And to throw such accusations that someone there lifted his ass half a centimeter from the chair is very stupid.
отличный эпизод, и сам сериал в целом чертовски хорош. думаю, как-нибудь посмотрю его ещё раз, но совершенно точно могу сказать, что это будет нелегко.
отличный сериал, всем советую посмотреть. наряду с Братьями по оружию мощная вещь! без лишних соплей, без ненужных дурацких спецэффектов тридэ, которыми любят сыпать российские современные фильмы про войну, и которыми пытаются людей прочувствовать фильмы. просто мощный сценарий, отличные рабоы актеров и съемочной команды, и ты уже полностью за них болеешь и беспокоишься.
A masterpiece series. Why haven't I heard of him before? And male humor is present, and the tragedy and the lives of the characters have been shown. I was worried about each individual character. I wish there were more such series.
Somewhere the first two episodes were not very interesting, I don't even know why, I thought that the series was a cut below "Brothers in Arms". But by the end of the series, I realized that he was just as fucked up as the one mentioned above. Pyatyunya :)
Equal in quality / depth / execution to the "Brothers in Arms". Here, the emphasis is more on the person, on various aspects of his living in inhumane conditions of military operations, rather than on the theater of military operations, but he did not lose at all, and somewhere even won from the "Brothers ...".
A well-chosen cast, excellent musical component, interesting life stories of individuals do their job - they sink into the heart...
The events described were so long ago, but humanity and individuals remained without vaccination from the war, from all the fear, grief and losses that it causes... Alas and ah... 😔
Очень рада, что наткнулась на эту работу. Большое мастерство вести нарратив исключительно от лица американских солдат, но при этом заставить зрителя сопереживать и японской стороне. Война не бывает черно-белой и хоть нам, обывателям, повезло думать о таких вещах только в художественном контексте, важно всегда об этом помнить. Странное ощущение, как история о Второй Мировой покрывается пылью прямо у нас на глазах. Единственным человеком, который соединял меня с ней, был мой дедушка-ветеран, ушедший ещё в моём детстве в начале нулевых. Такое ощущение, что память о войне ушла вместе с ним...

It's a pity that they don't shoot this here.

Больше всего за душу взяла 8 серия.
