Customer Ratings & Reviews

Similar to Band of Brothers in scope and production value, yet dealing with the war in the Pacific. It tracks the Marines who landed on several islands fighting their way to Japan. Based on a few accounts of Marines who fought at Guadalcanal and Peleleui all the way to Okinawa.

Band of Brothers producers Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg re-team to produce this ten-hour World War II miniseries. detail the arduous odysseys of U.S. Marines Sledge, Leckie, and John Basilone from their first skirmishes in Guadalcanal to their eventual return to American soil following V-J Day.

Great series at a great price!!! Bought several Blu-rays on Black Friday and a have been enjoying them during this pandemic. Has been a time for my wife and I to enjoy good movies and homemade dinners with one another.

I love the full series. The characters are real and tell the story of what WW2 in the Pacific was like. I like how they used real veterans that were there to help tell this story.

I think this picture had its work cut out for it in trying to live up to the success of Band of Brothers, and on its own I would have rated it higher, but for me it is just o.k., with one portion truly standing out over all the war scenes: and that was the portion of the film where the men get their leave. I wish this could have been stretched out a bit more, or would have had a few different outcomes, however this episode saved the film for me. Obviously the final episode stands out also, but I'll watch B.O.B. multiple times as opposed to The Pacific.

This is a series like the Band of Brothers was in the European Theater. The Pacific covers the battles that the Marines fought all the way towards Japan. Very intense battle scenes and the action keeps you glued to the screen. Be ready to watch a few episodes in a row!!!!

Not quiet as good as Band of Brothers, but totally worth watching. Has never looked better than these disks, and the metal case it came in looks good on the shelf and gives the set a premium feel.

Having read the book upon which the series was based I can attest to the general accuracy of the series. This 10 part story of the war in the Pacific and the men who fought it is extremely well done. There are no "name" stars but the acting is quite good and the story is well tied together and flows.

I've watched this series in DVD and watching it in blu-ray is almost like seeing it the first time. This series comes in the metal box full package edition and is well worth the Black Friday price of $10 plus tax.

We already had this on video so when I saw it on Blu-Ray I knew it was a must have. It not only tells you what it was like in the Pacific Theater during WWII as well as can be expected, but it also gets you involved personally with the characters. Partner it with Band of Brothers.

Hanks and Spielberg provide a wrenching story of the Gyrenes bringing the highs and lows and plenty action to our living rooms. Every character is well drawn. Another worthy tribute to the "greatest generation."

First i got this at a great price, great picture and great sound. If you like war movies you can not go wrong with this series. I also own Band of Brothers and with this addition of The Pacific it completes my series collection. Would recommend this to anyone who loves these kind of movies!!!

Both Hanks and Spielberg have an affinity for the WWII era and it shows in Band of Brothers. Many times violent but often touching this is a must for any aficionado of the WWII era. This mini series is a once in a lifetime deep dive into the perennial event that shaped "The Greatest Generation".

Great doc-u-Movie. This movie is almost like watching the films taken during WWII. The action and combat as I would think it would have been in original footage if they have better cameras and film.

This series is one of the best! Right along with Band of Brothers this tells stories of the Marines who fought the Japanese in the Pacific. The stories are so gripping and the characters make it seem like it's more of reality than a show. Highly recommended for any fans of war films.

So glad I found this series on Blu-ray at a great price. While it is not quite as good as the companion series, Band of Brothers, it is definitely worth watching. It is historically accurate and highly entertaining! Also, the metal case it comes in is an awesome bonus!

Great HBO series regarding war in the Pacific from those who brought you Band of Brothers. If you buy Blu-Ray, the collection comes in metal box. Please note this those not come with any digital codes.

I saw this when it first came out in 2010, then started watching again with my recent purchase. Very good series. Band of Brothers is still my favorite ww2 mini-series, but this does a great job about the Pacific side.

Such an amazing series and it's great to have in blu-ray - the A/V seems much higher quality than when you stream it. If you haven't seen it, it's a must watch and if you have - this is currently the best way to watch it!

This mini series was remarkably well done. It gave a very accurate account of what it was really like as a Marine in the war. Not only was the story great, the acting was great, characters were easy to relate to. Really enjoyed the filming, the effects were awesome. All in all, a really great show.
