Watching Band of Brothers I didn't want anyone to die but with Generation Kill I feel some of the nihilism shared by the men of the 1st Recon. It doesn't help that the series suffers from some uninspired casting.April 19, 2017
This is a complex, unwieldy tale that draws you in and isn't afraid to take its time. And, in that way it reminds me of The Wire... Generation Kill promises to be equally unforgettable.
