简　介
早在07就已经有消息HBO会拍摄一部《Generation Kill》伊拉克版兄弟连，和兄弟连一样，Generation Kill也是根据真人故事改编。同名畅销书由随军作家Evan Wright所写，讲述了伊拉克战争初期美国海军陆战队第一侦察营B连2排的23名士兵的战斗和生活。本书颇受评论界好评。这部由HBO重金打造的7小时迷你剧会在7月13日播出，喜欢战争题材的美剧迷一定不能错过。
这部剧是2007下半年在（南非、莫桑比克、纳米比亚）等多个国家进行取景拍摄，在圣诞节前拍摄完成，主创已经多次随剧组进行宣传。其实为了拍摄这部剧，演员早在2005年的时候就开始进行了严格训练，为了达到角色的要求演员都付出了很多（可见HBO对待这部剧的重视），这部迷你剧会分为多个部分、分别侧重与展示不同的士兵角色。
自从HBO经典剧集“OZ/监狱风云”结束后，演员Lee Tergesen始终没有能超越Beecher这个角色，这次他在《Generation Kill》会扮演代号为Scribe的Evan Wright士兵角色，主要发生在2003年美军与伊拉克战争的第一阶段，希望这次他回到HBO的老东家能够带来事业的新起点吧。

书评
From Publishers Weekly
Wright rode into Iraq on March 20, 2003, with a platoon of First Reconnaissance Battalion Marines—the Marine Corps' special operations unit whose motto is "Swift, Silent, Deadly." These highly trained and highly motivated First Recon Marines were the leading unit of the American-led invasion force. Wright wrote about that experience in a three-part series in Rolling Stone that was hailed for its evocative, accurate war reporting. This book, a greatly expanded version of that series, matches its accomplishment. Wright is a perceptive reporter and a facile writer. His account is a personality-driven, readable and insightful look at the Iraq War's first month from the Marine grunt's point of view. It jibes with other firsthand reports of the first phase of the Iraqi invasion (including David Zucchino's Thunder Run), showing the unsettling combination of feeble and vicious resistance put up by the Iraqi army, the Fedayeen militiamen and their Syrian allies against American forces bulldozing through towns and cities and into Baghdad. Wright paints compelling portraits of a handful of Marines, most of whom are young, street-smart and dedicated to the business of killing the enemy. As he shows them, the Marines' main problem was trying to sort out civilians from enemy fighters. Wright does not shy away from detailing what happened when the fog of war resulted in the deaths and maimings of innocent Iraqi men, women and children. Nor does he hesitate to describe intimately the few instances in which Marines were killed and wounded. Fortunately, Wright is not exposing the strengths and weaknesses of a new generation of American fighting men, as the misleadingly hyped-up title and subtitle indicate. Instead, he presents a vivid, well-drawn picture of those fighters in action on the front lines in the blitzkrieg-like opening round of the Iraq War.

From The Washington Post's Book World/washingtonpost.com
Straight from the depths of embeddedness comes Generation Kill: Devil Dogs, Iceman, Captain America and the New Face of American War (Putnam, $24.95), Evan Wright's group portrait of a Marine Corps platoon that fought in Iraq last year. In Wright's view, this sample of the front line of the American military "would be virtually unrecognizable to their forebears in 'The Greatest Generation.' . . . These young men represent what is more or less America's first generation of disposable children. More than half of the guys in the platoon come from broken homes and were raised by absentee, single, working parents. Many are on more intimate terms with video games, reality TV shows and Internet porn than they are with their own parents. Before the 'War on Terrorism' began, not a whole lot was expected of this generation other than the hope that those in it would squeak through high school without pulling too many more mass shootings in the manner of Columbine." Near the end of Wright's stay, one member of the platoon concluded, "War doesn't change anything. . . . This place was [expletive] before we came, and it's [expletive] now. I personally don't believe we 'liberated' the Iraqis. Time will tell." And yet this same naysayer, Wright reports, has since signed up for another mission.
