This does not have the same depth as Band of Brothers. I'm not attached to any of the characters after two episodes.
I think it might be going up a different route though. This looks to be more like a straight up ten hour war movie, focusing on the hardship of battle and the terror of firefights rather than the forging of brotherhoods and development of young men as they save the world.
Really, it's not fair to compare ANYTHING to Band of Brothers. It's an unrealistic standard to attain, even for Spielberg.
