Description

From Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg and Gary Goetzman--the producers of the Emmy(R) and Golden Globe(R)-winning 2001 HBO miniseries 'Band of Brothers'(R)--comes this epic 10-part miniseries that tells the true stories of three Marines fighting in the brutal Pacific theater during WWII. Focusing on the intertwined odyssey of Robert Leckie (James Badge Dale), Eugene Sledge (Joe Mazzello) and John Basilone (Jon Seda), 'The Pacific' follows these heroic men and their brothers-in-arms through the first battle on Guadalcanal in 1942, into the rain forests of Cape Gloucester and strongholds of Peleliu, across the bloody sands of Iwo Jima and Okinawa and, finally, to their triumphant but uneasy return home.

  • Real people amazing stories

    I enjoyed this story even more than Band of Brothers as it really showed the full experience of the US Marines in the Pacific including the crazy juxtaposition of the home and war front. I really felt like I was in their shoes and thank all of them for their service.

    … this is the best one. A graphic experience of war on the beaches and in the jungle before the Marines rode helicopters into battle
  • More complex than Band of Brothers

    I understand why people are saying that some of the lead characters are not so easy to like, but I would say that this is because they are more like real people than in other depictions. Over time, despite or perhaps because of the ‘warts and all’ portrayals, we come to respect and care for them. They are flawed but brave; weak but generous; self-seeking and self-sacrificing. That’s what makes them human and worth caring about, and that is much better than some other well-intentioned but not so sophisticated series on war.

    It's weird because this series follows three guys whereas band of brothers was all over the place. But the difference is band of brothers became coherent and the pacific is actually the series that is all over the place. It doesn't have enough action and its hard to like the main characters. Something went wrong when this was written.
