The Liberator

Band of Brothers had a $180 million budget in 2020 dollars. This quite obviously, did not.

The filter allows settings to be animated in, CGI vehicles, explosions, etc -- makes the entire miniseries possible. And I'd rather have the story than not, animation and all.

Besides, within 10 minutes of the first episode, I no longer noticed it. Eventually I found it interesting. Great story, engrossing binge, especially for military genre fans and WWII buffs.

It reminded me of band of brothers, yes the filter is distracting at first but you'll definitely get drawn into it if you give it a chance. Definitely worth a watch and one of the better shows I've seen on Netflix in awhile. 9/10 because the story was great but I did knocked down one because the filter is distracting at first or it would've easily been a 10/10

I don't see what the big deal is with the filter. It doesn't take away from the story. I guess some people just have to complain, no matter how petty the reason. I'm a history buff, and it tells an interesting story about an interesting group of men.

I don't mind the filters as long the story is good. The story is Great!

Like many "based on a true story" accounts, there are compromises that have to be made. I just finished reading The Liberator by Alex Kershaw, and I can see where events were compressed or characters were combined to synthesize a new character, which is fine for the purpose of telling a story. The story of Felix Sparks contains tragedy and loss, yet his will to not only survive but lead has made the leap to the screen. The graphic novel style still allows for nuanced performances, especially by Bradley James. Battle sequences and the hushed silences benefit equally from this style as well. Nothing would likely capture the horror of the liberation of Dachau, yet this production does it justice. Released on Veteran's Day, The Liberator is well worth watching and remembering the sacrifices of others.
