For a german production it was actually not too bad. first 2 episodes at least. But still, its just an attempt to clone Band of Brothers with a lower budget.
Which is not a bad goal. But it's actually not the goal of the series..not much at all like band of brothers. Don't tell me I'm the only one that has always wondered at the possibilities of a german mini-series like BoB that stayed away from politics of the war, and focxused soleyl on the bond among men, the losses, the leaders, and the battles with accurate depictions of them. That's BoB, that's not so much "Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter" at all. Overall the mini-series was rather good...I enjoyed it.
Too bad it wasn't prolonged into more parts with more focus on Winter's platoon, combat, and the brotherhood of the soldiers, that would have made it more of an equal to bob, it's not really about the soldiering on and camaraderie, it was a bunch of political statements, love story, and heartbreaking situations. Overall pretty good series, imho. The media reception and discussion in germany has been crap imho though, the focus almost entirely on how evil Opa was, and not the hopeless situation they were put in.
