I liked the series, too. They touched on a lot of really good points. Was anyone else moved by how young Sledge's character looked throughout the war? Look at that baby face!! I wonder how many baby faced soldiers marched off never to return.

 

I think they could have done more for us to get to know the characters a little better. I read both the books that this show were based on and they couldn't be any more different from each other.

 

Too much sex... but hey I don't get paid to be a movie critic, lol! But I'll give it a B+. They didn't touch much on the dry humor that was so prevalant in Lecke's story (that I enjoyed so much in his book). And Sledge's story was so intense I had a case of combat fatigue when I finished it.

 

I hated seeing Baslione KIA too, even if I knew it was coming... kinda like watching the Titanic.
