Movie Reviews of Band of Brothers [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: One of the Best Blu-Rays Available
Summary: 5 Stars
This is absolutely the best blu ray title available and you get 6 discs for $50 or less. The video is amazing and will really show you what your TV can do, especially the black levels. It may not be that amazing, color-popping nature show but it is supposed to replicate wartime footage with a grainy and 'faded color' appearance, and that it does extremely well. If you watch this with at least a 5.1 sound system prepare to be in for a treat. Band of Brothers utilized surround sound technology better than any other movie/show I've ever seen and you will here bullets whizzing by and mortars detonating all around you.
I'm not going to go into how great the storyline is because more than likely if you are purchasing this, you've seen it before. There are also many other reviews that describe just how great this series is. For around $50 you get almost 10 hours of WW II - you really can't go wrong. This is my favorite movie/series of all time and I highly recommend it to anyone.
Movie Review: Excellent War Series with Stunning Cinematography
Summary: 5 Stars
I first watched Band of Brothers when it came out on DVD years ago, and eventually picked it up on Blu-ray because I knew how great the picture looked on standard definition, and could not wait to watch the entire series again on Blu-ray. The HD version is even better, with stunning cinematography and amazing sound. The series is so good, I actually find myself watching it every once in a while on television when it comes on around Memorial Day or Veterans Day. The series follows Easy Company from boot camp to the very end of the war. The scenes featuring the actual soldiers talking about their experiences really help you feel for all those guys. I've seen a lot of war movies, but Band of Brothers is unlike any other I have seen as far as quality and depth.
Bottom Line: Anyone who enjoys military history or war movies will absolutely love Band of Brothers, and we can all learn some lessons of honor and integrity from these brave soldiers that the story is based on.
Movie Review: Must Have !! One of the best original series from HBO
Summary: 5 Stars
I had purchased the DVD version of Band of Brothers after I saw a few episodes from my roommates' DVD set. I was blown away with the story and the amazing script. The moment I realized that they were coming out with the Blu Ray version I promptly sold my DVD version and pre-ordered this set on Amazon. The advantages over the DVD version are as follows
1. 1080p full HD quality
2. DTS-HD Master Audio
3. English Subtitles (the DVD one had only Spanish)
4. Tons of extras like PIP commentary, Interactive guides and maps ...
For me these were good enough reasons to own this masterpiece !!
I have this set today in my hands !! Great packaging ... more or less like the DVD version .. just bit smaller !!
Amazing A/V quality !!! Way better than the DVD version of course !!
Conclusion: Must have even for a casual enthusiast ... and an absolute must for those hardcore fans !! Go get it !! Can't beat Amazon's price !!
Movie Review: Must Have. Period.
Summary: 5 Stars
I got BOB from Amazon on Blu-Ray. Bottom line: If you are even reading this page, you MUST buy it. It is simply stunning. On Blu-Ray, the gritty, realistic feel of the camera, along with filters and colors that are used to film BOB just pop out at you. This isn't going to be crystal clear in the sense that Wall-E or some other animated movies are clear in Blu-Ray. This is clear in the sense that you really feel what the director was trying to achieve with the shots.
The sound IS something from out of this world. Watching it in DTS Master Audio (lossless) was a serious treat. If nothing else, buy this to show off your home theater by turning on the Battle of the Bulge episode.
As far as the quality of the show, nothing competes. You get attached to the characters, you feel their joys and their pains. You feel like a member of Easy Company.
This is a must own for anyone who even considers themselves fans of some sort of media.
Movie Review: Band Of Brothers, Blu-Ray
Summary: 5 Stars
I was given the older DVD version several years ago & enjoyed same. After reading many reviews on the Blu-Ray Edition at Amazon, I had to have this product. My calculations has Lt,. then Cap't. Winters about 8 years my senior. But for the accident of birth, who knows what would have happened to me. As it was, I served 2 years during WWII, most of it after the war in Europe was over. Cap't Winter has retired to his farm in Pennsylvania.
The Blu-Ray Edition in my opinion is far better in PQ & AQ. I must have a very good BR player, because It produces such a good pic and sound, 5.1 DTS. I ordered from Amazon and opted for their 2-3 day delivery. It came in a large bubble type envelope via UPS in perfect condition in two days. I, for one am ecstatic. Shown on my 50" plasma HDTV, I have the best of both worlds. By the way, there are many language subtitles for those of us who are hearing impaired. Also Amazon beat other providers by about $20.
