Recently, I got the DVD set as a gift and the boy Pacific what a gift he has proved to be. I can honestly say that I was totally enthused from the beginning to end with this incredible mini-series and have never been so absorbed in a drama of World War 2, never.
DVD box set not only tells the story of three marines for their own accounts of real events, but you get to see behind the scenes and get an eye overview birds from how it was made. As an educational aspect get you a break from the war of the Pacific itself and see influences historical and cultural perceptions and differences play a large role and contributed to the implacable continuing brutality of the conflict.
Of course there were other representations of the battles of World War 2 but with the collaboration of Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, putting their spin on events engineering, the result is nothing less than pure brilliance and has classic written all over it.
EC which makes it stand out from everything else that I've ever seen, I believe, is the fact that you the viewer gets to be so involved and up close and personal with the characters. You experience and feel the pain and the raw emotions that endured these brave men.
The mini series Pacific focuses on three marine Robert Leckie, John Balisone and Eugene Sledge all have very different experiences, but also during their time at war with the Japanese so horrible at home on leave or during combat.
Sledge and Leckie having written with books about their struggles with a brutal enemy not only in an unforgiving land but personal wars with adaptation to normal everyday life it is easy to immerse yourself in the horror and the hardships they must treat.
With a disk 6 featuring a number of Veterans of World War 2 that particular campaign telling their own experiences he really makes home the fact that what you saw is not the imagination of some Hollywood movie maker, but everything happened and these brave men lived, endured and overcame the terror and the tests such that fortunately most of us will never know.
Both humble and edifying and graphical detail used to really understand not only a vicious enemy, merciless, ruthless, but harsh daily lives, exhaustion, starvation and disease across the Pacific DVD is a true testament beautifully presented and said, and even if you're not a fan of World War 2, this special epic is a must see.
