Product Description

Amazon.ca

The pilot episode of Steven Bochco's Over There is as riveting, unexpected, and shocking as the series premieres of the legendary producer's Hill Street Blues and NYPD Blue. The first television drama set in an existing war being waged by the United States, Over There concerns the first tour of duty for a young, U.S. Army unit sent to Iraq. Unlike any number of movies and TV shows starring middle-age actors portraying American fighting forces in past wars, Over There's combat soldiers look and act like the barely-out-of-high-school young adults (many of whom, in Over There, joined the military out of economic necessity) most of our real-life troops actually are.

Whatever one's feelings about the Iraq war, Bochco and co-writer and director Chris Gerolmo (Citizen X) cut through the politics to get to the individuals whose lives are on the line, who left behind families to find themselves in a most alien environment, fired upon for reasons they may not fully understand. Gerolmo does a superb job of showing us combat conditions in desert sandstorms, with rookie soldiers hanging tough under intense heat while insurgents fire from a distance at anything that moves. This is a new kind of war show, yet in many ways Over There embraces a few sentimental conventions, notably scenes in which the unit's members explain the origins of their nicknames ("Angel," "Dim," "Doublewide," "Mrs. B," and more). In the Bochco tradition, when violence comes, it comes as a grievous surprise. --Tom Keogh

Product Description

From producer Steven Bochco ("NYPD Blue," "L.A. Law," "Hill Street Blues") comes the first scripted television series set in a current, ongoing war involving the United States. Gritty, intense, evocative and emotional, "Over There" takes you to the front lines of battle and explores the effects of war on a U.S. Army unit sent to Iraq on their first tour of duty, as well as the equally powerful effects felt at home by their families and loved ones.

A must-see show for all Americans, "Over There" is not about politics or policies. It's a true-to-life depiction of our courageous soldiers—the everyday heroes who fight for freedom under extraordinary conditions.

Includes an exclusive behind the scenes featurette!

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent Aug 11 2005

Format:DVD
Well i am in the army and just returned from over there where i spent 16 months fighting on the streets of iraq. This movie is extremly accurate. It shows the way things really were, and it shows what we really went through over there. So take it from me an operation iraqi freedom veteran who was there and have some storys of my own, watch this show and support YOUR troops.

I got back 6 months ago from "Over There" and from what I have seen this show is a very realistic depiction of what it's like(accept that their camel back always seem to be empty, lol). I haven't missed an episode and don't plan on it. Highly Recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love the movie but watch your orders! Aug 14 2007

Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I loved this TV show and was disappointed when they took it off the air. However, be VERY careful when ordering! I ordered both videos (the pilot and the one with the episodes) - since Amazon was offering it as a "package" deal for a cheaper price, I assumed that the pilot episode was not on the boxed set - WRONG! It is repeated on that boxed set, so you will set yourself back $10 if you get them both.
