The acclaimed TV mini series tells the story of Easy Company of the US Army Airbourne Paratrooper division and their mission in WWII France during Operation Overlord.
This review mirrors the HD-DVD Japan release of 2006 with an additional disc of interviews and so forth.
I own the HD release and can say that this set is one to own, from the opening scene at the English airfield through to the training camp that is episode 1. The image is stunning but with a lot of grain through out the entire series, this was intended and is present but not too distracting when you sit and enjoy the whole experience of this war story.
I can whole heartedly recommend that people with HD audio equipment warn the persons living next door to you, or you"ll be getting a visit from the noise police. The HD-DVD has a DTS HD HR 5.1 sound track. I suspect the Blu-ray will have nothing less than this and its perfect. This will be guaranteed to rattle those windows and have you hitting the floor as those bullets fly by.
I enjoyed this set so much, that it was certainly worth the £20 per disc + shipping from the far east (5 discs in total). So much in fact that this set regularly pops up on EBay commanding £175 and higher for sale as a complete set.
