I thoroughly enjoyed this show. It starts off comedic but gets more chilling after the first couple of episodes. I think even then it was comedic, just not the type of comedy that makes one laugh.
A (very) dark/black comedy about war and the deterministic and powerless situations soldiers can find themselves in, doing (arguably) useless things. Even as a viewer your hopes for a win will get thwarted every time. Even though this all does not sound like good entertainment, it somehow proofs to be the opposite. To find the humor in the world this mini-series creates, proofs the acting and writing skills involved with this show are not just average, nor an afterthought. It (at least) tries to depict a (semi-)realistic world, and does not venture into intentional offensive comedy just for a shock effect. I would not recommend to everyone, but it is definitely worth the watch if you are ok with a less than regular style of comedy and can enjoy or dealt with a (largely) lack of positivity in a story.
I have mixed feelings about this show. I cannot say if this is a comedy or a drama or what. Is quite strange. I like it, but is not something I would recommend to watch to most people.
Unexpectedly interesting, funny and desperate miniseries. Ghe ine thing I loved it most was the movie. Good choice.
Took a while to get into it but thoroughly enjoyed it. Classic anti-war film.
