There are three somewhat connected miniseries that aim to showcase World War II in three different ways, based on different non-fiction books, all released between 2001 and 2024. They form something of an unofficial trilogy, but it’s hard to know what to call said trilogy. Maybe it’s best to name it after the first show of the three, 2001’s Band of Brothers, which was mostly about American troops on the Western Front .
And the war genre has always been linked to aerial warfare; done well, it can be stunning, as demonstrated by a film as old as 1927's Wings, the first Best Picture winner. Masters of the Air does manage to soar in some of its stronger moments, owing to a capable cast and a solid angle toward World War II that warrants a high budget and a sense of spectacle.
2 'The Pacific' Creator: Bruce C. McKenna It was fitting to follow Band of Brothers with The Pacific, changing up the scenery and theater of war directly by showcasing the experience of U.S. forces fighting in places like Guadalcanal and territories in Japan. Like Band of Brothers, it’s exceptionally well-made and cinematic, even by the high standards of an HBO miniseries, and has production values on par with movies about the Pacific Theater .
