Johannes S @RT64416087 Aug 26, 2026 It starts off slow, but I bonded with the characters more and more with each episode. It perfectly encapsulates the futility of the invasion. I always love the comradery and bond between brothers during military movies and series, it's the one thing I miss about the military.

I kept waiting for a plot, a point, a purpose, and nope, never, not a chance any of those happened at all. Awful, terrible, idiot writing. Looks to have been written by a middle school drama club who had no clue that stories are supposed to have a beginning, middle, end and a point. Absolute trash. Pointless waste of time! See more G W @Tonopah May 31, 2026 The action is a little over-the-top, but the characters, the dialogue and the attitudes all pretty perfectly capture 21st century military life. This is one of HBO's truly great pieces of art. See more JP H @Taocat Apr 19, 2026 Mostly feels realistic. With the exception of the overwhelming amount jargon spoken constantly it comes across well. Now I need to read the book the series was based on to compare it to the screenplay. The reporter who wrote it didn’t realize the troops were using it a lot to screw with him.

It’s difficult for me to put into words, but to this day I still have not watched any show or even movie as good as this. Let me be clear, I’m not exalting anything that happens in the movie as either good or incredible. I write this from two perspectives, my first from when I first started watching this years ago. And now, my perspective as a practising Muslim. The production and editing is incredibly well done. The dialogue is absolutely raw and unaccompanied by fluff. I’ve watched this more times than I can count, because every single time you watch it you notice or hear something new. A scene plays out with two or three characters talking about >whatever<, and either during the scene or in the next scene you can hear other guys or the same guys go off in the background, continuing the conversation. It doesn’t feel scene for scene, more like day by day. Regardless of anything, I highly recommend giving this a try (or three).
