Just finished the first 2 episodes. I agree there's a cleanliness to it. I think that also has to do with HD cameras nowadays, which almost makes CGI pop more. Either way, I'm absolutely enjoying the show so far!
Not sure about the credibility of this review respectfully. Have to say after seeing the screening myself, it was fantastic. I have to completely disagree with your assessment here. You can't really compare anything to BOB but this series was spectacular based on the same title with the book of course. It felt authentic, the story was amazing and the production and cinematography was second to none. It is heavy CGI but they did a tremendous job. I would highly recommend it. To me, this was better than the Pacific and up there with BOB.
Fair review that aligns with what I was expecting based on trailers. Having read the book too it's such a broad story covering the entire 100th bomb Group. Not enough time is spent on individual characters there's like 300 characters lol it reads like a documentary. BoB followed one company and we grew w the characters
Watch “The Pacific” again, because your nostalgia is clouding your judgement. It is actually a terrible miniseries, in regard to its storytelling and characterization. Apart from Sledge’ arc, everything is forgettable and redundant. Plus, the characters are bland and horribly cast. There is a reason no one, besides Rami Malik, became a household name. What a disappointment and waste to finally showcase the part of WWII many forget about.
I would love to see those veterans talking at the beginning of each episode like BoB that would be absolutely outstanding,... But im afraid it wont be like this....
