It's just a pale replica of the greatest WW2 tv show ever to have graced the screens. The characters are two dimensional tropes, utter cliches galore left and right and 6 episodes in I don't care about any of them because I don't know them. I have no idea what makes them tick, no idea about their backgrounds, dreams or desires. Every single character is either distant or highly unlikable.
Sometimes it feels like I'm watching the same episode over again, with certain scenes being framed and filmed exactly the same. They wake up, they walk into a staff room, they watch some maps, fly, bomb, some die, others come home. Rinse and repeat.
There is no sense of progress or where things are in the war and there's very little sense of urgency or importance to what they're doing. Finally, there's nothing to show the effects or results of their raids.
Sorry to say it, but I expected so much more.
