It came no where close to capturing the emotion. The acting was not as good, and the story just seemed secondbest if you know what I mean.

I will agree. Band of Brothers caught the essense of the downtime as well as the battles.

The episodes in the Ardoughn (sp) forest were some of the best war movie scenes you will find.

(I almost wept when the skies cleared and the allied planes flew overhead, I felt so bad for those men enduring that)
